Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are common and guidelines recommend testing to exclude functioning lesions and malignancy. Their increasing prevalence results in several investigations that are usually conducted in the endocrinology clinic. In 2011, we audited the prevalence and management of AIs identified on computed tomography (CT) imaging of abdomen over 1 calendar month. ⋯ Of those, 1.01% in 2011 and 0.95% in 2012 had newly identified AIs. Only a few patients had been tested to exclude a functional lesion and there was inconsistent terminology in reporting adrenal lesions. Therefore, we support comprehensive reporting of AIs and a selective testing strategy.
