Computed tomography (CT) scan identified necrosis, but is it a reliable single parameter for discerning between malignant and benign adrenocortical tumors?

Background: Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Discernment of adrenocortical carcinoma in an adrenal mass through imaging studies is paramount for early surgical treatment. Recently, necrosis has been proposed as a single morphological parameter for adrenocortical carcinoma diagnosis.
