From the case:
Lipid-rich adrenal adenoma
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_examine_pipeline_reports":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/100925/annotated_viewer_json?_c=1699858410\u0026lang=us"}
The lesion is showing lipid attenuation (-18 HU) on noncontrast CT, thus being virtually pathognomonic for lipid-rich adenoma. No contrast was given.
Other findings: liver and kidney cysts (hyperdense on in left kidney), left kidney calculus, advanced atherosclerosis.
