Brief Summary

To validate the accuracy of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT and adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in subtype diagnosis of PA/ACS patients with adrenal nodules, based on biochemical and clinical remission outcomes, and to determine whether the diagnostic accuracy of 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT is non-inferior to AVS.
