• Metabolic risk management (e.g. hypertension and dyslipidaemia)
• Pioglitazone, vitamin E
[52, 53]. The author personally informs patients with MAFLD seen at screening CTC of its potential risks so that they can then discuss future management with their physicians [10]. Literature underscores that colonic ndings and ECFs must be reported on [10, 28, 50]; hence, the reporting template in Chap. 21 includes MAFLD.
Key Messages
• 70% of patients with MAFLD may have nor­mal liver enzymes.
• Ultrasound can only detect steatosis when >30% of the liver is affected.
• Liver attenuation in steatosis is always lower than the HU of spleen.
• Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has excellent sensitivity in both detecting and accurately quantifying hepatic steatosis.
• Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing MAFLD, staging the degree of MASH, and assessing histological brosis.
• Increased incidence of adverse CV events in patients with MAFLD compared to the gen­eral population.
• MAFLD is characterised by an atherogenic lipid prole, namely
– High triglyceride (TG) levels. – Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
levels.
– An increased level of low-density lipopro-
tein (LDL).
– Increased very low-density lipoprotein
(VLDL) particles.
– Increase levels of lipoprotein B100
concentration.
• MAFLD diagnosis includes elevated serum liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT)
• Cryptogenic cirrhosis is the end stage of a chronic liver disease.
• MAFDL may induce HCC.
• Fatty sparing may be present.
19.12 Summary
In recent years, the presence of MAFLD in asymptomatic individuals has increased signi­cantly, especially in those who are obese or have type 2 diabetes. While most will remain asymp­tomatic in the presence of MAFLD, a small per­centage will progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and, with inammatory and necrotic changes will then progress to cirrho­sis, and nally hepatocellular carcinoma.
The diagnosis of MAFLD at CTC is easily
made on unenhanced abdominal CT scans. The ROI tool is placed over the right lobe of the liver to measure the HU readings. The liver normally has a HU value of approximately 60. MAFLD is diagnosed when the value drops below 45 HU; lower readings mean more fatty inltration in the liver. MAFLD liver is an ECF of moderate clini­cal importance (E3), but some radiologists clas­sify it as E2 (low clinical importance).

20.1 Introduction
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of death worldwide [1]. Over the past few years, colon cancer has been diagnosed in younger adults [27]. The American Cancer Society [6], as well as the US Preventive Services Task Force [7], recommend CRC screening should com­mence at age 45years and not at age 50 years. Screening begins at age 40years if there is a fam­ily history of CRC.Both computed tomography colonoscopy (CTC) and optical colonoscopy (OC) are used in screening of patients; OC is used for therapeutic and diagnostic procedures. There are a range of reasons for an incomplete or failed OC [8, 9]. The 2020 guideline update of the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) and the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR) includes CTC and colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) as alternative imaging proce­dures in incomplete or failed OC [10]. Double contrast barium enema (DCBE) is not listed in current literature [9, 10] thus will not be dis­cussed in this chapter (see also Chap. 1). The focus of this chapter is the role of CTC and its advantages compared to CCE. Reasons for incomplete or failed OC are provided. CTC

images are presented to illustrate some of these reasons.

chapter.

• ECFs: extracolonic ndings

Endoscopy
• 3D: three-dimensional
• 2D: two-dimensional
• OC: optical colonoscopy
20.2 Colon Capsule Endoscopy (CCE)
Spada et al. [11] compared CCE and CTC in patients with incomplete colonoscopy (IC). They concluded that the two tools were of comparable efcacy in terms of colon evaluation. Patients who had undergone an OC and a CCE study indi­cated they preferred the latter [12]. A disadvan­tage of CCE is its battery life; video compression could be a possible solution [13]. It is not feasible to visualise organs and structures outside of the colon in a CCE procedure. In terms of the respec­tive average costs of CCE and CTC, the latter is almost half that of CCE [14].

20.3 Reasons forIncomplete andFailed Optical Colonoscopy
Reasons for incomplete or failed OC: operator factors (e.g., endoscopists’ experience, caecal intubation rate); patient factors (e.g., inadequate bowel preparation, low body mass index); techni­cal factors (e.g., diverticular disease, previous surgery, previous radiotherapy in the pelvis region) [9]; and anatomic factors. The latter include tortuous or exceedingly long colon, loop­ing of the colon especially in the sigmoid colon, acute exure angle, and xation of colon loops [9]. According to CTC literature, predictive fac­tors on incomplete OC include total colon length, number of exures, and advanced diverticular disease [15, 16].
20.4 Advantages ofCTC
CTC is a fast, safe, socially distanced, minimally invasive, low-dose examination which does not require sedation [10, 1721]. A CT scanner with special software produces a reconstruction of the carbon dioxide (CO2) lled colon. The software produces two-dimensional (2D) images and three-dimensional (3D) endoluminal views [18,
20, 21]. The software allows video viewing of a
3D virtual y-through of the colon from the rec-
tum to the caecum (retrograde navigation) and back to the rectum (antegrade navigation). This process takes approximately 2 min to perform; one is able to stop the y-through at any stage for careful scrutiny of any part of the colon that may have a lesion [22]. In a routine supine and prone CTC examination, a virtual y-through is per­formed four times.
The software also has a tool to produce a 3D surface-rendered image (colon-map) of the entire colon as shown in Fig.20.1a–c. The soft­ware generates an automated centreline for endoluminal navigation. The automated cen­treline may be used for invivo length measure­ments. Figure 20.1d, e shows an automated green line.
Redundancy of colon segments is a reason for incomplete or failed OC [9, 15, 23]. Examples of redundant segments of the colon at CTC are pre­sented in Fig.20.1f, g. Figure20.1h shows redun- dancy and an acute exural fold. Examples of colon pathologies seen at CTC are presented in Fig.20.1i–n.
Another advantage of a CTC is that a scan covers the entire abdomen from the lung bases to below the pelvis allowing for visualisation of extracolonic organs and structures [2428]. It is not feasible to visualise organs and structures outside of the colon in CCE and OC.Examples of extracolonic ndings (ECFs) at CTC are pre­sented in Fig.20.2a–f.

20.5 Incomplete Optical Colonoscopy: Role ofRadiology Imaging
and uid. A patient is given 250mL of 2% bar­ium and 50mL of non-ionic iohexol (Omnipaque) to drink when fully recovered after incomplete
OC. On average, it takes 3–4 h for the tagging Literature underscores that CTC should be per­formed on patients with incomplete OC [9, 29
33]. The percentage of incomplete OC studies is
reported to range from 0.4 to 15% [34, 35]. The ESGE and ESGAR 2020 guideline includes CTC in incomplete OC; DCBE as an imaging alterna­tive to colonoscopy is not included [10]. The guideline does not list DCBE as an imaging alter­native to colonoscopy. The diagnostic performance of CTC in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients for the detection of CRC and large polyps is simi­lar to OC and superior to barium enema thus the latter examination should be discouraged [3].
ESGE and ESGAR [10] recommend a same day or next day CTC for incomplete OC.A same day CTC requires tagging of any residual stool
agents to reach the colon. Before insufation of CO2 commences a pre-procedure low-dose CT scan is performed to exclude the possibility of an OC caused colonic perforation [10]. Examples of colonic perforation in a patient referred for CTC following an incomplete OC are shown in Fig.20.3a, b.
If free air is visualised, a CTC is not per­formed: the referring gastroenterologist is informed of this complication. If a CTC is to be performed the next day, then the patient is kept on uids only overnight and the tag­gingagents are taken orally that night. If free air has been excluded on the pre-procedure CT scan, a CTC examination is performed the next day.
