Personally, I think radiologists have a responsibility to report anything they find. It is not their place to determine suggestibility of the patient or whether they will experience symptoms from it. Their job is solely to report the findings (all of them) and leave the clinical diagnosis to the doctor.

It used to be that patients were not reading their own reports. Now patients can be more proactive when they see things like this and start asking more questions.
