Magnetic resonance imaging of the hypothalamus-pituitary unit in childrensuspected of hypopituitarism: who, how and when toinvestigate.

Journal of endocrinological investigation - 1 May 2004

Maghnie M, Ghirardello S, Genovese E

Abstract excerpt

The magnetic resonance (MR) identification of pituitary hyperintensity in the posterior part of the sella has been the most striking recent finding contributing to the diagnosis of "idiopathic" and permanent GH deficiency (GHD). Moreover, advancements in DNA technology have shed new light on the study of the genetic causes of hypopituitarism. Abnormalities in two genes, the GH-N encoding the GH and the GHRH...
