Table 2.

Cross-sectional imaging morphologies and interpretation of adrenal venous sampling (by patient-level data)

Definition of lateralization AVS interpretation PA patients with bilateral morphologically normal adrenal glands on imaging (n = 43) PA patients with a unilateral morphologically normal adrenal gland on imaging (n = 200) Total patients (n = 243)
Normal left (n = 91) Normal right (n = 109)
LI ≥2 Bilateral PA 17 9 14 40
Left lateralized 12 7 75 94
Right lateralized 14 75 20 109
LI ≥4 Bilateral PA 28 15 34 77
Left lateralized 7 6 65 78
Right lateralized 8 70 10 88

Abbreviations: AVS, adrenal venous sampling; LI, unstimulated lateralization index; PA, primary aldosteronism. Bold values highlight patients with discordant results between cross-sectional imaging findings and AVS lateralization.
