Incidental adrenal lesions are very common . Computed tomography (CT ), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI ) and positron emission tomography (PET ) all have a role to play in characterizing adrenal lesions . The purpose of this review is to discuss the rationale behind both established and emerging imaging techniques . We also discuss how to follow up incidentally found lesions .
