Abstract

In this chapter, we select cases to highlight teaching points discussed in the previous nine chapters. Also included here are some uncommon entities that were only briefly mentioned in prior chapters due to space constraints, but that can be important in the differential diagnosis for certain common lesions. Each case has a brief history followed by a description of the imaging findings. Next, we provide a “best 3” differential diagnosis list, based on the belief that giving an exceedingly long list is usually not practical in everyday clinical practice. The discussion for each case focuses on the distinguishing features among the “best 3” and provides a rationale for why the final diagnosis is the most logical one. Lastly, we provide some “Key Points” which briefly highlight important facts about the disease entity or the specific teaching point.
