MRI is one of the most recent techniques of medical imaging. While it gives excellent results at the level of the skull, spine and pelvis, its use remains limited at thoracic and abdominal level because of movements which produce a deterioration in the image. However, the retroperitoneal space and in particular the adrenals may be explored under satisfactory conditions. The indications and results of this technique are discussed, based on the experience of adrenal examination in 90 cases.
