Computed tomography enterography (CT enterography, CTE) is a medical imaging technique which uses computed tomography scanner and contrast media to examine the small bowel. [1] It was first introduced by Raptopoulos et al. in 1997. [ 2 ]
Abdominal imaging is associated with many potential uses for the different phases of contrast CT.The majority of abdominal and pelvic CT's can be performed using a single-phase, but the evaluation of some tumor types (hepatic/pancreatic/renal), the urinary collecting system, and trauma patients among others, may be best performed with multiple phases.
Virtual colonoscopy (VC, also called CT colonography or CT pneumocolon) is the use of CT scanning or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to produce two- and three-dimensional images of the colon (large intestine), from the lowest part, the rectum, to the lower end of the small intestine, and to display the images on an electronic display device.
Enterography is medical imaging of the intestines. Thus it may refer to: Upper gastrointestinal series; Lower gastrointestinal series; CT Enterography; MR Enterography;

Cross-sectional imaging techniques, like bowel ultrasonography (BUS), CT enterography (CTE), and MRI enterography (MRE), are essential for understanding how extensive Crohn's disease is and whether there are any complications, like blockages or abnormal connections between organs. All three methods are quite accurate for diagnosing Crohn's ...
