Overview

According to the European Society of Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline, screening for adrenal incidentaloma includes: family screening for patients with bilateral macronodular hyperplasia, patients with asymptomatic vertebral fractures, patients with possible autonomous cortisol secretion, patients with a hereditary syndrome leading to adrenal tumors. Screening test include 24-hour urine fractionated metanephrines for pheochromocytoma, 24-hour urinary free cortisol for patients with symptoms of Cushing's syndrome, and Plasma aldosterone concentration, plasma renin activity for patients with Primary aldosteronism.
