Listen "Evaluating Adrenal Incidentalomas"
Episode Synopsis
Guest: Irina Bancos, M.D. (@IrinaBancos)
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. (@ChutkaMD)
The widespread use of CT and MRI scans has resulted in frequent serendipitous findings, including adrenal nodules. When these nodules are found, two questions need to be answered. Is the nodule malignant and is this nodule metabolically active? This podcast will address these incidentally found adrenal nodules, also known as adrenal incidentalomas. We’ll review when these nodules should be investigated, the likelihood they represent a malignancy and how to assess if they’re metabolically active. Our guest for this podcast is Irina Bancos, M.D., an endocrinologist at the Mayo Clinic.
