In fact, detection bias due to incidental diagnosis during work-ups for hypertension was not supported in a study which directly evaluated that hypothesis [ 93].
Contrary to expectation, detection bias due to incidental diagnosis during work-ups for hypertension was not supported in a study which directly evaluated that hypothesis.
The increased use of abdominal imaging is also frequently invoked as an explanatory hypothesis for the rise RCC incidence, to the extent it leads to an increase in the incidental detection of renal masses.
