A member asked:
Radiology reports for us, ct, mri all state multiple bilateral renal cysts, as well as 4 liver cysts. why were the multiple kindey cysts not counted?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There is usually: no clinical relevance to incidental renal cysts, so there is generally no reason to count them or measure each one.
