Evaluation of primary adrenal insufficiency secondary to tuberculous adrenalitis with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging: Current status

Figure 2 A 52-year-old woman who has anorexia, daytime somnolence and sweating in last three months with primary adrenal insufficiency due to adrenal tuberculosis. The unenhanced (A) and contrast-enhanced (B) CT scans reveal the mass-like enlargement of bilateral adrenals, but its contours are preserved with multifocal peripheral enhancement on axial (B) and coronary (C) reformed images. Three months after antituberculous therapy, the axial (D and E) and coronary (F) images demonstrate the initially enlarged adrenal glands become small with homogeneous density in the center, and decrease of probability of the presence of peripheral rim enhancement. CT: Computed tomography.
