Overview

CT Scan

CT findings in Addison's disease may include:

  • Small adrenal remnants bilaterally
  • Dense calcification in one or both adrenal beds without evidence of normal glandular remnants - in TB
  • Enlarged nonhomogeneous glands of normal contour - in Histoplasmosis
  • Atrophic adrenal glands - in idiopathic autoimmune Addison's disease.
