THIS MONTH’S HIGHLIGHTS
CT Colonography: Problem-solving techniques to avoid mimickers and pitfalls
CT colonography (CTC) has been widely demonstrated to be the most accurate and sensitive imaging method to identify colonic lesions. Nonetheless, artifacts, traps and mimickers are not infrequent and can be seriously confounding, leading to an incorrect diagnosis.
This month’s Focus on, by Prof. Laghi’s team, aims at illustrating the most reliable criteria and techniques for an effective characterization of the colorectal lesions observed at CTC, driving you towards a correct imaging interpretation.
