CT colonography has become a potential alternative technique to optical colonoscopy for the detection of colorectal polyps and cancer.

We report a case of colonic perforation during CT colonography using automated CO2 insufflation and present procedural changes to help minimize the adverse effects of perforation when it occurs.
