A 68-year-old woman had an incidental discovery of a 2.5 cm adrenal mass (adrenal adenoma) during an abdominal CT urogram conducted to investigate persistent hematuria. Her medical history includes hypertension treated with labetalol, hyperlipidemia, and osteopenia. Over the past 18 months, she has gained 25 pounds and underwent menopause at 50. On physical examination, she appeared obese, with a BMI of 32, blood pressure measuring 160/100 mmHg, and a regular heart rate of 96 bpm. However, there were NO typical signs of Cushing's syndrome, such as scalp hair loss, hirsutism, acne, increased dorsocervical fat, hyperpigmented striae, bruising, or lower extremity oedema. How should further management proceed?
