Current guidelines often recommend follow\u2010up imaging around one year, but, given the poor prognosis of malignant adrenal lesions, the utility of this approach is unclear. Therefore, we investigated whether growth rates of incidental adrenal nodules are consistent with this guidance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a retrospective cohort study at Te Toka Tumai Auckland, New Zealand. We identified all CT adrenal examinations performed between Jan 2010 and Dec 2015 in which the patient had an incidental adrenal nodule on prior CT and who had at least one follow\u2010up scan. Annual nodule growth rates were calculated and compared between malignant and benign lesions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>66 patients with 75 adrenal nodules were identified. The mean (SD) age was 63.5 (10.7) years; 44% were female; average nodule size was 21.2 (10.5) mm; and average follow\u2010up time was 5.8 (2.8) years. The solitary malignant nodule rapidly increased in size (13\u2009mm\/39\u2009days). Of the 74 benign nodules, 32 (43%) increased in size (mean annual growth 0.9\u2009mm\/year), 24 (32%) decreased in size (mean \u22120.7\u2009mm\/year), and 18 (24%) were unchanged at final follow\u2010up. 95% of benign nodules had an annual growth rate between \u22122 and +2\u2009mm\/year.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Malignant lesions grow at an order of magnitude higher than benign lesions, which mostly remain stable or grow very slowly. A one\u2010year follow\u2010up scan may be too late to be of clinical use in malignant lesions. Follow\u2010up should be based on the risk of malignancy at baseline and\/or the growth rate on any subsequent adrenal imaging.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/1754-9485.70058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,13]],"date-time":"2025-12-13T09:12:12Z","timestamp":1765617132000},"page":"50-56","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Incidental Adrenal Nodules and Growth Rates: A Single Centre Retrospective Cohort Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"70","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-9531-9336","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Julie","family":"Hu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology Te Toka Tumai Auckland  Auckland New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Remy","family":"Lim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology Te Toka Tumai Auckland  Auckland New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Bolland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Endocrinology Greenlane Clinical Centre, Te Toka Tumai Auckland  Auckland New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1530\/EJE-09-0234"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-138-5-200303040-00013"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ejendo\/lvad066"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacr.2017.05.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMcp2031112"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3803\/EnM.2020.35.1.26"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","volume-title":"National Ethical Standards for Health and Disability Research and Quality Improvement","author":"Committee NEA","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.19.21342"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210\/clinem\/dgad199"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.0300-0664.2001.01435.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1530\/eje.1.02110"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00261-019-02149-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00261-024-04333-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13244-025-02015-4"}],"container-title":["Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/1754-9485.70058","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/1754-9485.70058","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/1754-9485.70058","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,3]],"date-time":"2026-02-03T09:37:19Z","timestamp":1770111439000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/1754-9485.70058"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,13]]},"references-count":14,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,2]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/1754-9485.70058"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/1754-9485.70058","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1754-9477","1754-9485"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1754-9477","type":"print"},{"value":"1754-9485","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,13]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2025-08-08","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-11-25","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-12-13","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
