*C-RADS classification:22 E1 normal exam or anatomical variant; E2 clinically unimportant finding (eg, liver or kidney cysts); E3 probably unimportant finding (eg, indeterminate renal lesions); E4 potentially important finding (eg, aortic aneurysm, solid mass in liver or kidney).
†Numbers represent all participants that received a CTC scan (thus also participants that refused a colonoscopy after CTC and participants with a CTC that was of insufficient quality for polyp detection)
‡All extracolonic findings found in 9 participants.
