Abstract |
Whilst the diagnosis of colonic cancer is always based on visually guided flexible colonoscopy, which is the only technique that provides a histological diagnosis, the pre-treatment assessment of the cancer involves computed tomography. This can determine the exact site of the cancer in the colon, its dimensions and juxta-colonic extension and is used to investigate for liver, mesenteric or lung metastases.
