Evidence found in paper:

"Abstract was presented at the State of NY ACEP Meeting 7/2010 and National ACEP Scientific Assembly Research Forum 10/2010. The authors declare that there is no conflicts of interests. Patients with only one incidental finding were less likely to receive disclosure in discharge paperwork than patients with two or more findings (0.08% versus 19.7%, P = .01). As expected, patients older than 60 years were more likely to have incidental findings than patients less than 60 years of age (32.5% versus 37.9%, P < .001). No significant difference was noted between genders in either rates of incidental findings or rates of disclosure."
