POVEDA, César Augusto e GONZALEZ, Édgar Iván. Masses adrenales: the current role of diagnostic images. rev.fac.med. [online]. 2012, vol.60, n.1, pp.67-74. ISSN 0120-0011.
This article describes the role currently being played by diagnostic images (especially computerised tomography and magnetic resonance) for diagnosing adrenal masses. It deals with the concepts of washing in tomography and chemical displacement in magnetic resonance in morphological and dynamic characterisation with pertinent contrast medium and reviews the most frequent pathologies, emphasising differentiation between benign and malign pathologies. A flow diagram for adrenal mass diagnosis is suggested.
