Overview

CT findings suggestive of chronic adrenal insufficiency may include small and atrophic adrenal gland. CT head findings suggestive of pituitary disorder leading to adrenal insufficiency may include hemorrhage in case of pituitary apoplexy or a mass suggestive of pituitary adenoma or craniopharyngioma.

CT scan

CT findings suggestive of chronic adrenal insufficiency may include:
- Small and atrophic adrenal gland
CT head findings suggestive of pituitary disorder leading to adrenal insufficiency may include:
- Hemorrhage in case of pituitary apoplexy
- Mass suggestive of pituitary adenoma or craniopharyngioma
