Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH)—also known as hypothalamic hypogonadism—is a condition in which the hypothalamus or pituitary gland produces little to no gonadotropins. Gonadotropins are hormones ...

The scientists are the first to capture high-resolution CT scans of the interior of a large, dense object—a gas turbine blade—using a compact, laser-driven X-ray source. The findings ...

Adrenal glands can also be impaired if there is a disorder in the pituitary gland, as it signals the adrenals to make certain hormones like cortisol and aldosterone. Adrenal fatigue is theorized to ...

The scientists have captured high-resolution CT scans of the interior of a large, dense object -- a gas turbine blade -- using a compact, laser-driven X-ray source. The work is part of a larger ...

TUESDAY, March 18, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- Low-dose CT chest scans could help detect pneumonia in at-risk patients while exposing them to small amounts of radiation, a new study says. Ultra-low ...

Patients are exposed to 2% of the radiation of a normal CT scan TUESDAY, March 18, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- Low-dose CT chest scans could help detect pneumonia in at-risk patients while exposing them ...

One CT scan can expose a patient to 10 or 15 times as much radiation as another, Smith-Bindman said. “There is very large variation,” she said, “and the doses vary by an order of magnitude — tenfold, ...

The pituitary gland is often subdivided into the posterior and anterior pituitary glands. The posterior pituitary gland, which extends from axonal projections originating from the hypothalamus ...
