Hypothalamic-pituitary function tests: current status
Postgrad Med.
1977 Nov.
Abstract
Pituitary disorders can be diagnosed more readily and precisely as a result of two recent advances: development of radioimmunoassays for direct measurement of each pituitary hormone in blood, and availability of hypothalamic hormones for use in provocative tests for secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone, prolactin, and gonadotropic hormones.
