In-Vivo Ct Dosimetry During Virtual Colonoscopy
<p>Virtual colonoscopy (VC) is a minimally invasive means for identifying colorectal polyps and colorectal lesions by insufflating a patient’s bowel, applying contrast agent via rectal catheter, and performing multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) scans. The technique is recommended for colonic …

Feature Extraction and Feasibility Study on CT Image Guided Colonoscopy
… tomographic colonography(CTC), also called virtual colonoscopy, uses CT scanning and computer post-processing to create two dimensional images and three dimensional virtual views inside of the colon. Computer-aided polyp detection(CAPD) automatically detects colonic polyps and presents them …

COMPOSITE KERNEL FEATURE ANALYSIS FOR CANCER CLASSIFICATION
Computed tomographic (CT) colonography, or virtual colonoscopy, is a promising technique for screening colorectal cancers by use of CT scans of the colon. Current CT technology allows a single image set of the colon to be acquired in 10-20 seconds, which translates into an easier, more comfortable …

Deformable Registration of Supine and Prone Colons for CT Colonography
State-of-the-art three-dimensional endo-luminal virtual colonoscopy (VC) or CT colonography (CTC) is a minimally invasive medical procedure that examines the entire colon in order to detect polyps and colorectal cancer. Most colon cancers malignantly transform from polyps, which are extra growths …
