Abstract
Nowadays, along with totipotent and pan-explorative exams (CT, MR, PET), the traditional exams perform better than in the past due to the improved definition offered by digital technology and the possibility of postprocessing on the monitor. That is, they allow everything that is requested to be seen, and more besides. Therefore, they can equally accurately confirm the clinical suspicion by describing it in essential reports, and they can anticipate a clinical diagnosis itself by describing incidental findings in exams requested for other reasons.
