Incidental adrenal lesions are commonly detected at computed tomography, and lesion
characterization is critical, particularly in the oncologic patient. Imaging tests have been …

OBJECTIVE. Adrenal nodules are frequently encountered on current high-resolution
imaging, and accurate characterization of such lesions is critical for appropriate patient care …

Abstract Background Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare tumors of
the adrenal medulla and extra-adrenal sympathetic chromaffin tissues; their anatomical and …

Context: Most adrenal incidentalomas are nonfunctioning adrenocortical adenomas (ACAs).
Adrenocortical carcinomas (ACCs) are rare but should be recognized at an early stage …

Context: Adrenocortical carcinomas are uncommon, and their evaluation by [18F]
fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) has not been well evaluated …

Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors that may arise anywhere along the
paraganglial system, with a high frequency of hereditary forms or multifocal disease. Most …

With the steep increase in the use of cross-sectional imaging in recent years, the incidentally
detected adrenal lesion, or" incidentaloma", has become an increasingly common …

Purpose Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) may
differentiate benign from malignant adrenal lesions. In this study, standardized uptake …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to map the distribution of 2-deoxy-2-[18 F] fluoro-d-
glucose (FDG) uptake in organs of patients with no known abnormalities in those tissues …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: We sought to assess the ability of 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-
glucose (FDG) PET/CT to distinguish adrenal adenomas from nonadenomas in patients with …
