Abstract

Conclusion: It is imperative for the radiologist to be cognizant of and how to correctly identify mimickers of pathology so that unnecessary interventions and surgeries are avoided.

Purpose: The radiologist can encounter benign significant imaging findings on computed tomography that can be incorrectly interpreted as neoplasm. The authors review several benign findings and demonstrate several methods to differentiate these findings from more sinister pathology.
