Common questions

What does Adrenal Nodule Washout (APW / RPW) do?

Characterizing adrenal incidentalomas (unenhanced > 10 HU, or no unenhanced series): adenoma (incl. lipid-poor) vs lesions needing further workup. HU measurement is done by the radiologist.

How is the result calculated?

APW = (E−D)/(E−U)×100 (needs unenhanced); RPW = (E−D)/E×100 (used when no unenhanced). Thresholds: APW ≥60% or RPW ≥40% suggests adenoma.

Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?

No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
