## Indications for use
CT Colonography is a CT image analysis software package which allows the visualization of 2D and 3D medical image data of the colon derived from DICOM 3.0 compliant CT scans for the purpose of screening of a colon to detect polyps, masses, cancers, and other lesions. It provides functionality for 2D/3D rendering, bookmarking of suspected lesions, synchronized viewing of supine & prone data sets, and an object oriented endoluminal display. In comparison to colonoscopy, this tool has an advantage of depth penetration due to its 3D presentation capability. It is intended for use by Radiologists, Clinicians, and referring Physicians to process, render, review, archive, print and distribute colon image studies.
