title: Pneumatosis coli and multi-slice helical CT virtual colonoscopy.
abstract: Helical CT colography is improved by multislicing due to thinner slices. The case reported shows the potential of multislice HCT colography to demonstrate gas-filled cysts on axial images as well as on CT endoscopy, and consequently the extent of the disease exceeding the sigmoid, as was diagnosed by conventional coloscopy.
