Demonstrates clear delineation of normal adrenal glands via computed tomography in 78% of patients, indicating CT imaging aligns with surgical measurements.
CT body scans of 60 random patients without evidence of adrenal disease were reviewed to determine the location, size, and shape of both normal adrenal glands. Both glands were clearly delineated in 78% of the patients evaluated. The length, width, and thickness of adrenal glands as measured by computed tomography were similar to comparable measurements from surgical and autopsy studies.
