Imaging of adrenal incidentaloma: Our experience
2014, International Journal of SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Abdomen MDCT is the best choice, especially in relation to cost-effective; the dedicated examination protocol for the characterization of adrenal incidentaloma comprise a pre-contrast CT and two post-contrast scanning (after 35 s and 10 min) [22–25]; in the local practice the post-contrast phases could be performed at different times (90–120 s and 10–15 min) [5]. Homogeneous lesion with smooth margins and size less than 4 cm and density <10 HU without enhancement to contrast media, indicates benign lesions [26–28], with a specificity of 98–99% [29,30]; the presence of macroscopic fat, with a density of −10’ HU is characteristic of a myelolipoma; if the attenuation is of 0–15 HU without enhancement after contrast media administration, a simple cyst is suspected [5]. Adrenal lesions with the same attenuation values and an adenoma and/or a cyst appearance with a transverse diameter >4 cm, no further imaging is needed [30].
