The current report describes the operations and results of a system that provides a review of incidental findings by an appropriate medical professional. A web-based system was created whereby investigators performing brain MRI scans...
متن کاملIncidental neuroimaging findings: lessons from brain research in volunteers.
Over the last few years, brain research in volunteers that are considered healthy has increasingly used neuroimaging methods. The actual imaging techniques are tailored to the scientific issue under investigation but such imaging sessions often include high-resolution structural brain imaging. Accordingly, these brain scans are not ideal but nonetheless sensitive for detecting the presence of b...
متن کاملGenomic research and incidental findings.
The Human Genome Project showed that there is significant genetic variation within the population. Current research is accumulating large databases that may reveal genetic variations associated with disease or health risks, even if not intended as part of the study design. These incidental findings create legal, ethical, and financial challenges for researchers. Current federal and internationa...
متن کاملIncidental findings in pediatric research.
The approach to incidental research findings in children emerges by considering the child-parent relationship and balancing divergent interests and preferences. Incidental findings with clear and proximate clinical importance should be disclosed to both. We recommend that particularly sensitive or private information (e.g., pregnancy or drug use) should be disclosed to the adolescent first, whi...
