Adrenal Washout Calculator for CT Adrenal Lesion Characterization

Calculate Adrenal Washout Percentages

Please enter the Unenhanced HU value.
Please enter the Enhanced HU value.
Please enter the Delayed HU value.

Our Adrenal Washout Calculator helps clinicians assess adrenal masses using CT Hounsfield Units (HU). Easily calculate both Relative Washout Percentage (RW%) and Absolute Washout Percentage (AW%) to aid in differentiating benign adrenal adenomas from other potentially malignant or indeterminate lesions, supporting accurate diagnostic decisions based on imaging.

Formula:

The Adrenal Washout Calculator utilizes Hounsfield Unit (HU) values from unenhanced, enhanced, and delayed CT images to determine two key percentages:

  • Absolute Washout Percentage (AW%):
    AW% = ((HUenhanced - HUdelayed) / (HUenhanced - HUunenhanced)) * 100%
  • Relative Washout Percentage (RW%):
    RW% = ((HUenhanced - HUdelayed) / HUenhanced) * 100%

Where:

  • HUunenhanced = Hounsfield Units on unenhanced CT imaging
  • HUenhanced = Hounsfield Units on post-contrast CT imaging (e.g., 60-second delay)
  • HUdelayed = Hounsfield Units on delayed post-contrast CT imaging (e.g., 15-minute delay)
