It’s just an incidentaloma

What’s an incidentaloma? “Incidentaloma” is a medical term. These two papers are among the many that try to explain:

“Benign anatomical mistakes: Incidentaloma,”

Mirilas, Petros; Skandalakis, J E., The American Surgeon, 68.11 (Nov 2002): 1026-8.

“Screening using whole-body magnetic resonance imaging scanning: who wants an incidentaloma?”

Rustam Al-Shahi Salman,William N Whiteley, Charles Warlow, J Med Screen, 2007;14:2–4

(Thanks to Dany Adams for bringing the concept of incidentalomas to our attention.)
