Caliectsis

Caliectasis occurs when there is excess fluid in your calyces (cavities in which urine collects before it flows into the urinary bladder). Causes of caliectasis include blockage/obstruction in the kidneys, cysts, tumors, kidney stones, urine buildup (hydronephrosis), and urinary tract infections. Based on your MRI images, this finding is nonspecific, meaning it is difficult to say what caused it.

Abdomen

Absent Kidney

Absent kidney can be due to surgical removal or it can also occur genetically and is then called renal agenesis.

Abdomen

Accessory Spleen

An accessory spleen is a small nodule of splenic tissue which is not connected to the rest of the spleen. They are benign and asymptomatic.

Abdomen

Adenomyomatosis of the gallbladder

Adenomyomatosis is an abnormality of the gallbladder characterized by overgrowth of the inner mucus lining and thickening of the muscle wall. It is not clear what causes this condition and it is considered benign (not harmful and non-cancerous).

Abdomen

Biliary fold in the gallbladder body

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of the abdomen under the liver. It holds a digestive fluid called bile that is released into the small intestine to help break down fats and nutrients. The gallbladder is divided into 3 parts - the neck, body, and fundus. Variations in shape of the gallbladder are common. One such variation is a biliary fold in the body of the gallbladder. It is usually asymptomatic (does not cause symptoms).

Abdomen

Cholelithiasis / gallstones

The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of the abdomen, just beneath the liver. The gallbladder holds a digestive fluid called bile that is released into the small intestine. Gallstones can form when this fluid deposits and hardens. Lifestyle optimization can prevent gallstone formation. Focus on a diet rich in healthy fats and fiber, maintain a regular movement/exercise habit and have a healthy body composition (extra weight is associated with gallstones).
