About

The aim of this study is to develop a one-step diagnostic method for adrenal diseases, Patients with adrenal diseases including non-functioning adrenal adenoma, adrenal Cushing's syndrome, primary aldosteronism, and pheochromocytoma will be recruited. Using mass spectrometry analysis based on a multisteroid panel, serum, urine, saliva, and hair samples of the patients will be analyzed. The diagnostic yield of each and combination of steroids will be evaluated.

Full description

Adrenal diseases consist of heterogenous diseases. To differentiate various adrenal diseases, multiple steps of diagnostic tests are needed. In this study, the investigators aimed to develop a one-step diagnostic method to differentiate various adrenal diseases using multisteroid panel.

About 400 patients with adrenal diseases including non-functioning adenoma, adrenal Cushing's syndrome, primary aldosteronism, and pheochromocytoma will be recruited. Serum, hair, saliva, and urine samples of the patients will be analyzed using mass spectrometry. Each and combination of multisteroid will be evaluated for diagnosing adrenal diseases.
