The Podcast
Knowledge and information are critical tools to affect early diagnosis in pituitary disease. Join Dr. Lewis Blevins and Jorge D Faccinetti cofounders, as they navigate the wonders and complexities of pituitary conditions.
In this podcast from our "musings series" comes an interesting discussion on lab result targets. This case comes from a hypothyroid patient who wanted to achieve a particular TSH lab result target. In the discussion, Dr. Blevins focuses on how the pituitary works, how lab tests work, and what makes aiming at and achieving a narrow target almost impossible.
To continue our focus on pituitary awareness month, this session touches on various issues related to awareness and its importance as a critical factor in reducing the time to diagnosis.
If you didn't have a chance to hear it live, here's a podcast from the live talk session from last Thursday with special guest and PWN friend and contributor Pituitary neurosurgeon Dr. Sandeep Kunwar. He joined Dr. Lewis Blevins for a great discussion of the latest in pituitary surgery and disease management.
