What Does The Following CT Scan Report Suggest?
My CT report says fatty wall thickening involving the ascending colon, colour is or incomplete distention. I have to have a colonoscopy as soon as possible when GI called. Never had GI problems except norovirus about 5 weeks ago. What could cause this?

Hello,
Norovirus may involve intestine and it may be the reason behind colon thickening. Also get assessed for intestinal tuberculosis by lab test as TLC ,DLC , ESR . Rest of the picture will be clear after colonoscopy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
