Abstract:
Screening of asymptomatic average-risk patients for presence of colon cancer and early detection in precursor stages is of great interest to general population. Comprehensive evaluation of symptomatic or high-risk patients represents another important clinical focus. Available techniques for total colon imaging, rectal cancer staging and the role of positron emission tomography are discussed.
