Incidentally discovered adrenal masses.

Abstract:

:Incidentally discovered adrenal masses are a common clinical problem. Most of these masses lack specific imaging features that enable accurate characterization. In this article, the authors describe the imaging findings, as well as the roles of various imaging techniques that are currently used to evaluate these masses.
