Recent advances in the imaging of adrenal and neuroendocrine tumours.

Computed tomography (CT) remains the cornerstone of adrenal imaging. Masses are initially assessed without contrast medium to measure their attenuation value (Hounsfield Unit, HU). About 70% of benign cortical adenomas will contain sufficient intracellular lipid to lower the attenuation value to 10 HU. If the attenuation value is greater than 10 HU, immediate and delayed scans are performed fol...

Incidental Adrenal Nodules and Masses: The Imaging Approach

Adrenal nodules are detected with increasing frequency. The National Institute of Health (NIH), American College of Radiology (ACR), and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and American Association of Endocrine Surgeons (AACE/AAES) have produced guidelines for the management of incidental adrenal nodules. This review provides a summary of the consensus radiologic approach to t...

Incidental MRI anomalies suggestive of multiple sclerosis

Background: The discovery and broad application of MRI in medicine has led to an increased awareness in the number of patients with incidental white matter pathology in the CNS. Routinely encountered in clinical practice, the natural history or evolution of such individuals with respect to their risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS) is unclear. Objective: To investigate the natural history...
