Prolactin-adjusted ACTH ratio in predicting lateralization of acth source during simultaneous bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling in patients with Cushing's disease

Introduction: Prolactin-adjusted adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) ratio is used to improve the diagnostic accuracy of bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) for lateralization of pituitary adenoma. Objective: To study the use of prolactin for successful catheterization during BIPSS, th...
