Abstract
Adrenal scintiscanning and venography with sampling of adrenal venous blood are valuable methods to localize adrenal cortical lesions of Cushing''s syndrome and primary aldosteronism [in humans]. Adrenal scintiscanning with dexamethasone suppression is most useful in differentiating adenoma from hyperplasia of primary aldosteronism.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
