A member asked:
Would an adrenal gland tumor show up on a contrast ct or abdominal ultrasound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adrenal tumors: Abdominal US may be limited in terms of depth resolution, depending on the areas scanned, and is less sensitive for adrenal tumors. CT scanning is quite sensitive for adrenal enlargement, and frequently detects tumors of the adrenal that are not clinically significant. Contrast may help differentiate some features of such tumors.
