Computed tomography as a noninvasive X-ray method offers new facilities for detecting and diagnosing recurrences after surgical treatment of rectal carcinomas. In a comparative study the CT findings of 14 patients with recurrent rectal tumors of the Kuwait Cancer Control Center and of 77 patients of the Central Institute for Cancer Research in Berlin-Buch/GDR were reviewed. CT is of high sensitivity and specificity for the detection and the extent diagnosis of recurrent rectal tumors and is helpful in taking the appropriate therapeutic decision (surgery, radiotherapy). CT examination becomes mandatory for the postoperative follow-up and further assessment.
计算机断层扫描作为一种非侵入性X射线方法，为直肠癌手术治疗后复发的检测和诊断提供了新的手段。在一项对比研究中，对科威特癌症控制中心14例复发性直肠肿瘤患者以及柏林-布赫/民主德国中央癌症研究所77例患者的CT检查结果进行了回顾。CT对复发性直肠肿瘤的检测及范围诊断具有高敏感性和特异性，有助于做出恰当的治疗决策（手术、放疗）。CT检查对于术后随访和进一步评估是必不可少的。
