摘要：
Advances in computed tomography (CT) technology and computer capabilities have contributed to the development of a new imaging modality for colorectal lesions called CT colonography or virtual colonoscopy. Virtual colonoscopy is a rapid, minimally invasive scan of the cleansed and distended colon. Early work has demonstrated that this test is safe and well tolerated, and that it may be sensitive and specific enough to identify most significant precancerous or cancerous lesions. A number of technical and practical problems remain before virtual colonoscopy can be applied at a population level.
