A thorough and rigorous evaluation must be performed for every patient with an adrenal lesion.  Each patient must receive a metabolic work-up where hormone levels in the blood are thoughtfully tested.  Appropriate radiographic evaluation is paramount. Many of these clinical strategies require a deep understanding of the pathophysiology of adrenal disease.
