Abstract

Background: We describe nonenhanced, early contrast-enhanced, and delayed contrast-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) features and contrast washout characteristics of lipid-poor and lipid-rich adrenal adenomas and nonadenomas to determine the role of these methods in distinguishing one type from the other.
