    Those calcifications were described as being pathognomonic for adrenal hemangioma. However, it lacks specificity as it may present in various adrenal diseases including carcinoma, cyst, tuberculosis, neuroblastoma, and metastatic melanoma5 While some reports suggest that adrenal cavernous hemangiomas tend to appear hypointense on T1-weighted MRI,2 Noh et al. review found no strong clinical evidence to back this suggestion.

    Citation Excerpt :

    Most benign nonfunctioning adrenal adenomas have an attenuation value less than 10 HU. An attenuation value of < 10 HU for an adrenal mass has a sensitivity of 71% and specificity of 98% [9]. An adrenal mass with an attenuation value > 10 HU is classified as indeterminate and can benefit from additional CT imaging with intravenous contrast to evaluate perfusion and contrast washout from the adrenal mass.

    2015, Urology Case Reports
    Citation Excerpt :

    The main findings of adrenal cavernous hemangioma on CT include a hypodense, heterogenous lesion with calcifications, as was seen in our patient. Characteristic calcifications appear speckled throughout the entire mass, which have also been reported in 28–87% of cases.2 These represent phleboliths within the dilated vascular spaces of the lesion.
