ABSTRACT
The differential diagnosis of space-occupying lesion (SOL)s of adrenal gland is broad and ranges from benign to malignant. The diagnosis is important as management and prognosis differ widely. Increased use of imaging has led to common phenomena of adrenal incidentalomas confronting endocrinologists and radiologists alike. Adrenal gland is the only organ in pandora's box- abdomen - atrophy of which can have myriad clinical features and life-threatening implications. The adrenal imaging has come a long way from ancillary of biochemical diagnosis to mandatory in adrenal investigation protocol. This review attempts to summarize current status, future trend and pitfalls of adrenal imaging in endocrinology.
