Abstract:Computed tomography colonography (CTC) or CTbased virtual colonoscopy (VC) is an emerging tool for detection of colonic polyps. Compared to the conventional fiber-optic colonoscopy, VC has demonstrated the potential to become a mass screening modality in terms of safety, cost, and patient compliance. However, current CTC delivers excessive X-ray radiation to the patient during data acquisition. The radiation dose is a major concern for screening application of CTC. In this work, we performed a simulation study… Show more
