摘要：

Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the sigmoid distensibility during CT colonography (CTC) in patients with diverticular disease. Methods: Consecutive patients without a history of pelvic radiation or neoplasms underwent 150 CTC. Three radiologists in consensus evaluated axial images for colonic distention, luminal diameters (mm), diverticula, and muscular thickening. Results: The minimum colon diameter in patients with muscular thickening was significantly smaller, irrespective of the presence of diverticula (P =.009). Conclusion: Muscular thickening with diverticular disease was associated with significantly less sigmoid colon distension. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
