"Two defined transition points are seen in the minority of cases of cecal volvulus; a single transition point is more sensitive for cecal volvulus." Findings of Cecal Volvulus at CT Rosenblat JM et al. Radiology 2010; 256;169-175 "When cecal volvulus is suspected, the absence of distal colonic decompression on CT topograms makes the diagnosis very unlikely. Whirl, ileocecal twist, transition points, X-marks-the-spot, and split wall have high specificity for cecal volvulus." Findings of Cecal Volvulus at CT Rosenblat JM et al. Radiology 2010; 256;169-175
