The doctor says she has a pineal cyst that is 3 mm. how dangerous is this?

Pineal cyst: A 3mm pineal cyst is a quite small and likely an incidental finding on the MRI. These are common findings on MR, I would speak with the doctor who ordered the study and get further clarification that this is only a benign cyst.
