During a 2 year period 26 patients were scanned by computed tomography (CT) for evaluation of a suspected pheochromocytoma. In 14 patients a tumor was localized; 12 of these were verified at operation. Two patients with sign and symptoms typical of pheochromocytoma did not undergo surgery because of clinical contraindications. The other 12 patients had negative CT scans, and in none of these patients was a tumor found by other means. CT is the examination of choice in the localization of a pheochromocytoma in patients with hypertension and positive hormone assays.
在两年期间，对26例疑似嗜铬细胞瘤患者进行了计算机断层扫描（CT）以进行评估。14例患者肿瘤定位；其中12例在手术中得到证实。两名有典型嗜铬细胞瘤体征和症状的患者因临床禁忌未接受手术。其他12例患者CT扫描结果为阴性，且这些患者均未通过其他方法发现肿瘤。对于高血压且激素检测呈阳性的患者，CT是嗜铬细胞瘤定位检查的首选。
