Computed Tomography/Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Adrenocortical Carcinoma

12/2010; DOI:10.1007/978-0-387-77236-3_6 pp.67-84

ABSTRACT This chapter describes the imaging features of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) and their use in detection, staging, and follow-up
of the disease. The diagnostic imaging modalities most commonly used for this purpose are computed tomography (CT), magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), and FDG-positron emission tomography (PET).
