Water-enema multidetector CT (WE-MDCT) technique and interpretation in a 40-year-old male with clinical suspicion of acute diverticulitis. Multiplanar contrast-enhanced images show good distension of the rectosigmoid colon (a, b), hypersegmented proximal sigmoid, and distal descending colon with mild diffuse mural thickening and small diverticular outpouchings (arrowheads in a, b, c). Good distension of the upstream transverse and right colon (d–f) with at least one diverticulum in the ascending tract. Perivisceral inflammatory changes and abscess collections are confidently excluded
