The top two quadrants show a coronal reconstruction and an axial slice from CT images displayed in multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) format. The bottom-left quadrant shows a rendered global view of the colon (barium enema rendering) with some labels illustrating the location of findings. The bottom-right quadrant shows the endo-view rendering with a computer-aided detection (CAD) marked finding. This finding is labelled "c9a", where the prefix "c" differentiates it from the physician's findings.
