Journal ArticleDOI
Isolated adrenal masses in nonsmall-cell bronchogenic carcinoma.
TL;DR: In the patients with nonsmall-cell bronchogenic carcinoma, an isolated adrenal mass is more likely benign than metastatic, and biopsy is advocated prior to withholding potentially curative surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatic tumors: comparison of CT during arterial portography, delayed CT, and MR imaging for preoperative evaluation.
TL;DR: It is concluded that when it is vital to know the precise number, size, and location of focal hepatic lesions before tumor resection, CTAP has the highest sensitivity, but MR imaging is an important adjuvant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Focal liver lesions: characterization with nonenhanced and dynamic contrast material-enhanced MR imaging.
Bernd Hamm,Ruedi F. Thoeni,Robert G. Gould,Michael E. Bernardino,M. Lüning,Sanjay Saini,A E Mahfouz,Matthias Taupitz,Karl-Jürgen Wolf +8 more
TL;DR: Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging is a useful adjunct for characterization of hepatic lesions and knowledge of clinical history still has a decisive effect on interpretation of MR images of the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI
The frequency and significance of small (less than or equal to 15 mm) hepatic lesions detected by CT.
TL;DR: There is a high probability that hepatic lesions smaller than 15 mm are benign, even in patients known to have an extrahepatic malignant tumor, according to a review of Contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scans.
Journal ArticleDOI
CT-guided adrenal biopsy: accuracy, safety, and indications.

TL;DR: Percutaneous needle biopsies of adrenal masses were performed in 53 patients and were initially successful in 44 (83%) of 53 patients, indicating that the procedure is an accurate and safe alternative to surgical biopsy.
