This article defines the necessary skill set and knowledge base required for accurate computed tomography colonography (CTC) interpretation. The components of the interpretative process as well as the various strategies currently employed are discussed. The role of extracolonic evaluation as an integral part of this examination is also covered. Within this context, the question of whether a radiologist or gastroenterologist is better suited to interpret this examination is explored.
