Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a non-cathartic, computer-assisted form of CT Colonography (Virtual Colonoscopy) for detection of pre-cancerous colon polyps in a group of asymptomatic screening patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Performance for detection of adenomatous colonic polyps > 6mm
this is a prospective test comparison of non-cathartic, CAD-assisted CT Colonography to segmentally unblinded optical colonoscopy (OC), latter serving with pathology specimens as reference standard for presence of polyps.
on per subject basis, metric will be assessed at unblinding OC (w/i 5 weeks enrollment); for cohort, summary statistics will be generated at study completion
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Patient comfort associated with non-cathartic exam preparation
on per subject basis, outcome will be assessed at 5 weeks post enrollment (following OC); for cohort, summary statistics will be generated at study completion
Study Arms (1)
non-cathartic CTC and OC
ACTIVE COMPARATORThis is a single arm, open label, prospective test comparison of non-cathartic, CAD-assisted CTC to segmentally unblinded optical colonoscopy (OC). All study subjects receive both tests, starting with CTC, followed by OC within 5 weeks. CTC results are recorded and revealed to endoscopist on a segment-by-segment basis after initial (blinded) OC evaluation; endoscopist can double check / confirm lesion presence after unblinding and this second read serves as reference standard.
