Paraganglioma that develops in the center of the\nadrenal gland is called pheochromocytoma. Paraganglioma that forms outside of the adrenal gland,\noften along blood vessels and nerves in the head and neck, is called extra-adrenal paraganglioma, or\nsimply paraganglioma.\nEach year, between 2 and 8 people per million worldwide are diagnosed with paraganglioma and\npheochromocytoma. 10% of all cases occur in children. In both adults and children, pheochromocytoma\nis more common than paraganglioma. No known environmental, dietary, or lifestyle risk factors have\nbeen associated with these cancers.\nPlease see the\n DICOM converted Slide Microscopy images for the TCGA-PCPG collection (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.12689964)\n page to learn more about the histopathology\nimages and to\nobtain any supporting metadata for this collection.","patients":179,"studies":179,"series":385,"instances":1894,"size_TB":0.355,"modalities":["SM"],"licenses":[{"license_short_name":"CC BY 3.0","series":385,"size_TB":0.355}]}
