Popis: Given the ever-increasing utilization of magnetic resonance angiography, incidental vascular findings are increasingly discovered on exams performed for unconnected indications. Some incidental lesions represent pathology and require further intervention and surveillance, such as aneurysm, certain vascular malformations, and arterial stenoses or occlusions. Others are benign or represent normal anatomic variation, and may warrant description, but not further work-up. This review describes the most commonly encountered incidental findings on magnetic resonance angiography, their prevalence, clinical implications, and any available management recommendations.
