Diagnostic imaging of the pituitary gland, including pituitary adenomas, is surprisingly often required in clinical settings, and even young radiologists encounter pituitary lesions. Furthermore, after patients visit the hospital for infertility, lactation, acromegaly, elevated adrenal cortical hormone levels, or visual field constriction due to optic nerve compression, diagnostic imaging, along with physiological tests, can help in the differential diagnosis.
However, until now, there has been no book that provides a detailed description of diagnostic imaging of the pituitary gland, and in Japan, a country that leads the way in pituitary research, this definitive edition has finally been published, bringing together the best of the field.
