Otherwise benign MRI findings (so-called "incidentalomas") are a frequent cause of worry on the part of both clinician and patient. Knowledge of the imaging characteristics of incidentalomas, their (typically slight) pathologic significance, and how to distinguish these from less benign pathologic mimics can help avoid unnecessary worry, expense, and workup.
其他方面为良性的MRI检查结果(即所谓的“偶发瘤”)常常令临床医生和患者都感到担忧。了解偶发瘤的影像学特征、其(通常轻微的)病理意义,以及如何将这些与恶性程度较低的病理模拟情况区分开来,有助于避免不必要的担忧、费用和检查。
