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.

Screening

According to the European Society of Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline, screening for adrenal incidentaloma includes:

Indications for adrenal incidentaloma screening

Patients with possible autonomous cortisol secretion for hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Patients with asymptomatic vertebral fractures.
Screening imaging in patients with a hereditary syndrome leading to adrenal tumors.
Family screening with 1 mg dexamethasone test can be considered in cases of bilateral macronodular hyperplasia, especially in younger patients.

Screening measures

Disease	Laboratory tests
Pheochromocytoma	24-hour urine: Fractionated metanephrines Fractionated catecholamines Blood: Fractionated metanephrines
Cushing's syndrome	For patients with symptoms of Cushing's syndrome: 24-hour urinary free cortisol For patients lacking symptoms of Cushing's syndrome: 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test
Primary aldosteronism	Plasma aldosterone concentration, plasma renin activity
