MRI Atlas of Pituitary Imaging focuses on magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI), the imaging modality of choice for the evaluation of
pituitary disorders, since it provides a detailed anatomy of the
pituitary gland and surrounding structures, particularly the soft
tissues. A basic understanding and interpretation of MRI is
important for many clinicians outside of the field of radiology,
especially endocrinologists who may receive limited formal training
in such areas. This concise Atlas includes a brief review of the
principles of magnetic resonance imaging and then reinforces these
principles by utilizing a case-based approach to review various
pituitary pathologies. The Atlas serves as a strong clinical
teaching aid for endocrinologists, radiologists, and neurosurgeons
in training. It also serves as a great reference for physicians who
are currently in practice.
Developed via a peer review process that included 25 experienced
endocrinologists and utilizing the best current evidence, The
Cleveland Clinic has created a practical set of protocols for over
25 commonly used dynamic endocrine tests. The cornerstone of
clinical endocrinology, these evidence-based protocols play an
important role in clinical decision-making and are important
element of billing and compliance with high quality standards.
Included here are various tests for pituitary and adrenal
disorders, thyroid disorders, and glucose metabolism and pancreatic
disorders, presented systematically with indications, preparation,
materials needed, precautions, procedure, interpretation, and
caveats. Filling the gap left by a lack of national guidelines, The
Cleveland Clinic Manual of Dynamic Endocrine Testing is an
up-to-date practical guide for endocrinologists, nurses, and their
staff, inside or outside of the US, who need to perform and
interpret dynamic endocrine testing in their everyday practice, as
well as medical students, residents and fellows who have interest
in endocrinology.
