About This Test
Abdomen Whole with Adrenals Protocol (Scan Charges Only) offers specialized CT imaging tailored to evaluate the adrenal glands along with the full abdominal cavity, capturing non-contrast, arterial, venous, and delayed phases to differentiate adenomas, hyperplasia, pheochromocytomas, metastases, hemorrhage, and incidentalomas; the protocol analyzes washout characteristics that help distinguish benign from malignant adrenal lesions, supporting endocrine evaluation and surgical planning; although consumables may not be included, the scan provides high-quality datasets essential for adrenal characterization; it also visualizes liver, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, bowel loops, lymph nodes, and vasculature, enabling complete abdominal assessment; this protocol is critical for hormonal disorder workup, oncology staging, trauma assessment, and pre-operative evaluation.
