Background And Aim: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant global health burden, and screening can greatly reduce CRC incidence and mortality. Previous studies investigated the economic effects of CRC screening. We performed a systematic review to provide the cost-effectiveness of CRC screening strategies across countries with different income levels.

Purpose: This article introduces a novel deep learning approach to substantially improve the accuracy of colon segmentation even with limited data annotation, which enhances the overall effectiveness of the CT colonography pipeline in clinical settings.
Methods: The proposed approach integrates 3D contextual information via guided sequential episodic training in which a query CT slice is segmented by exploiting its previous labeled CT slice (i.e.

Background: Morphological properties such as length and tortuosity of the large intestine segments play important roles, especially in interventional procedures like colonoscopy.
Objective: Using computed tomography (CT) colonoscopy images, this study aimed to examine the morphological features of the colon's anatomical sections and investigate the relationship of these sections with each other or with age groups. The shapes of the transverse colon were analyzed using artificial intelligence.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major concern because of its increasing incidence and mortality worldwide. Therefore, effective screening strategies are necessary to reduce its incidence.
Summary: In addition to fecal immunochemical tests and computed tomography colonography, screening colonoscopy is expected to significantly contribute to the reduction of CRC.

Background: Colonoscopic enteral tube placement using current methods has some shortcomings, such as the complexity of the procedure and tube dislodgement. The magnetic navigation technique (MNT) has been proven effective for nasoenteral feeding tube placement, and is associated with reduced cost and time to initiation of nutrition. This study attempted to develop a novel method for enteral tube placement using MNT.
