Background: Adrenal lipid poor adenoma (LPA) and adrenocortical cancer (ACC) may overlap in computerized tomography (CT). Radiomics recently emerged as new tool for malignant behavior identification.Aim: To assess radiomics utility for identification of ACC and LPA in adrenocortical masses with unenhanced (UE) CT scan attenuation≥10 Hounsfield Unit (HU).Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 50 patients, 38 radiologically defin...

Background: Up to 30% of incidentally-discovered adrenal masses are lipid-poor adenomas (LPA). The clinical significance of LPA is poorly understood. The aim of the study was to investigate histopathological features of LPA and their association with radiological parameters.Methods: A total of 39 patients with radiological evidence of LPA were included. LPA was defined as an adrenal mass with pre-contrast Hounsfield units (HU) ≧10, associated wit...

Computerized tomography (CT) texture analysis (TA) provides a valuable amount of quantitative data on single voxels and their relationship in a target lesions, giving additional value to the CT scan. CTTA has been applied to several oncologic diseases. We aimed to correlate the data derived from CTTA of pheochromocytoma to clinical, biochemical and histopathological data in 30 consecutive patients. Pheochromocytoma was confirmed at histology. The CTTA was performed on unenhanc...
