Total number of colonoscopy
For the calendar year
2009 - 1079
2010 - 2008
Most patients did not need additional
radiology
In 2010, 47 (2.3%) had additional radiology for
failed colonoscopy

In WOS, the overall trend is to perform more
CTC instead of BE
• What is CTC
• What is BE
• Why CTC better?
Comparing BE vs CTC
• 2-D imaging
• Can only visualise
mucosal abnormality
• Overlapping
structures make
interpretation
difficult
• lower sensitivity and
specificity than CTC
What is CTC ?
Polyp
CT Colonoscopy
BE vs CTC
Perforation rate
(diagnostic)

CTC less discomfort compared BE
and optical colonoscopy
Bowel cancer screening
• With the support of GGC Trust, an enormous
effect has been made to make CTC more
widely available
• More fast CT scanners and more trained
radiologists are now available to support the
programme
Bowel cancer screening
The most important fact is to have your screening done
