This easy-to-use atlas comprises a collection of representative common and unusual virtual colonoscopy (CT colonography, CTC) cases that physicians and radiologists may expect to encounter during their clinical practice. The atlas reflects the important recent advances in image acquisition, patient preparation, and image processing and is thus completely up-to-date.  Each case is presented with the native CT images, integrated images obtained by 3D image processing, and colonoscopic correlation. Topics covered include normal appearances, anatomical variants, pitfalls, diverticula, lipomas, inflammatory bowel disease, polyps, flat lesions, cancers, and the postsurgical colon. By presenting the main features of anatomy and pathology, this atlas will serve as an invaluable tool both for radiologists performing CTC and for clinicians who need to review the CTC examinations of their patients.

L’avvento della tomografia computerizzata (TC) ha rivoluzionato la diagnostica per immagini degli ultimi trent’anni e, in particolare, i suoi più recenti sviluppi tecnologici le hanno aperto prospettive di impiego fino a poco fa impensabili. Scopo di questo volume è illustrare in modo sintetico quanto rigoroso i principi fisici e tecnici della formazione e dell’elaborazione delle immagini TC, ponendo particolare attenzione alle problematiche dosimetriche.

La recente e crescente attenzione da parte della letteratura scientifica e dei mezzi di comunicazione di massa sui possibili rischi correlati ad un aumento della dose richiede un aumento delle conoscenze relative alla radioprotezione. Obiettivo del presente testo è illustrare la problematica della dose erogata al paziente nei vari campi dell'imaging radiologico, ponendo attenzione sia agli aspetti fisico-tecnologici sia agli aspetti etico-sociali.
