FAQs

Can Virtual Colonoscopy detect colorectal cancer?

Yes. It can help identify colorectal masses or findings suspicious for cancer. Any suspicious finding generally requires further evaluation, often with conventional colonoscopy and tissue sampling.

Can CT Colonography detect diverticular disease?

Yes. It can demonstrate diverticula and other structural changes of the colon and may provide useful information about the extent of diverticular disease.

Does CT Colonography use radiation?

Yes. CT uses ionizing radiation to produce detailed images. CT Colonography is performed using an optimized low-dose protocol appropriate for the examination.

What are the advantages of CT Colonography (Virtual Colonoscopy)?

It provides detailed 2D and 3D visualization of the colon and rectum, is less invasive than conventional colonoscopy, and can help detect polyps, colorectal masses, narrowing, diverticular disease, and other abnormalities, supporting colorectal cancer screening and appropriate clinical management.
