Hanna, F. W. F., Hancock, S., George, C., Clark, A., Sim, J., Issa, B. G., Powner, G., Waldron, J., Duff, C. J., Lea, S. C., Golash, A., Sathiavageeswaran, M., Heald, A. H., & Fryer, A. A. (2022). Adrenal Incidentaloma: Prevalence and Referral Patterns From Routine Practice in a Large UK University Teaching Hospital. Journal of the Endocrine Society, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.1210/jendso/bvab180

Context: Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are increasingly being identified during unrelated imaging. Unlike AI clinical management, data on referral patterns in routine practice are lacking. Objective: This work aimed to identify factors associated with...
