Radiologist: This is a situation where the ordering physician, who knows the patients history, should sit down with the radiologist who interpreted the study and ask what the finding could signify, whether any other studies or referral to a specialist are advisable. The finding may have no clinical significance when the radiologist learns the patients history and other findings.
