Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare the sensitivity of computed tomography (CT) colonography (CTC) with that of colonoscopy for detecting patients with colorectal polyps in an asymptomatic screening population in Korea, thus to evaluate a possibility, whether CTC could be used as a screening tool for colorectal polyps.

Methods: A total of 241 asymptomatic adults underwent intravenous contrast-enhanced CTC and colonoscopy successively on the same day. Bowel preparation was performed by 4 L of polyethylene glycol (n=172) or 90 mL of sodium phosphate (n=69).
