Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective study which aims to validate a new diagnostic approach in the tissue characterization of adrenal tumors indeterminate on conventional imaging. For this purpose, it is not necessary to have a control group since the diagnostic accuracy in a well defined subset of patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary objective The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of FDG-PET, particularly the SUVmax tumor/liver ratio, in the diagnosis of indeterminate adrenal tumors on conventional imaging.

Secondary objectives

* To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the tumor SUVmax, and SUVmax of the tumor/mean SUV of the liver.
* To evaluate the relationship between SUVmax tumor/liver ratio and Weiss score.
* To evaluate the impact of the use of FDG-PET on the treatment options.
* To evaluate the economic impact of FDG-PET in the management of indeterminate adrenal tumors (ancillary study).
