Official Title: Structured Evaluation of adRENal Tumors Discovered Incidentally - Prospectively Investigating the Testing Yield

Brief Summary: Standard diagnostic work-up for adrenal incidentalomas (AI) consists of periodical biochemical analysis and CT-scanning in case the initial work-up does not demonstrate the presence of hormonal hypersecretion or adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), respectively. The overall aim of this study is to improve the cost-effectiveness of the diagnostic strategy for AI. Cost-effectiveness of urine steroid profiling (USP) will be compared to the standard diagnostic strategy of repeated CT-imaging.
