Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents one of the most relevant causes of morbidity
and mortality in Western societies. CRC screening is actually based on faecal
occult blood testing, and optical colonoscopy still remains the gold standard
screening test for cancer detection. However, computed tomography colonography
(CT colonography) constitutes a reliable, minimally-invasive method to rapidly
and effectively evaluate the entire colon for clinically relevant lesions.
Furthermore, even if the benefits of its employment in CRC mass screening have
not fully established yet, CT colonography may represent a reasonable alternative
screening test in patients who cannot undergo or refuse colonoscopy. Therefore,
the purpose of our review is to illustrate the most updated recommendations on
methodology and the current clinical indications of CT colonography, according to
the data of the existing relevant literature.
