DEPEND ON BLOOD WORK: the CT scan showing adrenal mass 9 mm, most likely benign with this size, and this kind of resolution. the major question, specially with a history of hypertension, and headache, if you are having a functional tumor, like hormone producing tumor or not, like pheochromocytoma. the only way to know that is by blood test. good luck
