Both CT and MRI have achieved high accuracy in the investigation of patients suspected of having adrenal pathology. The choice of technique will depend on several factors discussed in the review. The advent of spiral CT has allowed the examination to be tailored to demonstrating the adrenal with very high spatial resolution and it remains the most widely used initial technique. This review concentrates on new techniques for evaluating the incidentally discovered adrenal mass and differentiating between adrenal adenomas and metastases.
在对疑似肾上腺病变的患者进行检查时，CT和MRI都已达到了很高的准确性。技术的选择将取决于本综述中讨论的几个因素。螺旋CT的出现使检查能够针对性地以非常高的空间分辨率显示肾上腺，并且它仍然是最广泛使用的初始技术。本综述着重于评估偶然发现的肾上腺肿块以及区分肾上腺腺瘤和转移瘤的新技术。
