Virtual dissection shortens ct colonoscopy learning curve

Although CT colonography has become a technically feasible screening
tool for colorectal cancer, few radiologists have implemented the exam
as a service line in their practice, perhaps because exam
interpretation is time consuming, requiring analysis of 2D and 3D data
sets. A training method for virtual dissection reading, along with
concurrent use of computer-aided detection (CAD) technology, may
shorten the learning period and significantly increase diagnostic
values achieved by inexperienced interpreters. (Source: Health Imaging News)
