摘要
A knowledge of normal colonic anatomy and its variants as demonstrated on CT colonography is essential to limit false positive results and ensure a high sensitivity for polyp detection. Interpretive and perceptual errors undoubtedly decrease with increasing operator experience. To provide a confident and accurate report, radiologists must be familiar with common pitfalls and pseudolesions on CT colonography.
