Imaging diagnosis
Pituitary CT has a sensitivity of about 50% for identifying microadenomas MRI has increased sensitivity but is not 100% predictive If diagnostic doubt need bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling for ACTH Adrenal ultrasonography---first choice Abdominal CT will allow identification of adrenal pathology Somatostatin scintigraphy to identify sites of ectopic hormone production

Suppression tests
Screening test
Pulsatile secretion
Circadian rhythm
When stimulated by ACTH, the adrenal gland secretes cortisol and other steroid hormones. ACTH is produced by the pituitary gland and released into the petrosal venous sinuses in response to stimulation by corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) from the hypothalamus

Suppression tests
Large dose DX suppression test
It is rare disorder It occurs as a result of primary tumors of adrenal gland that hypersecrete cortisol excess ACTH secretion that may be of pituitary or nonpituitary sources

CRH stimulation test
Etiology diagnose (especially for pituitary ACTHdependent or ectopic ACTH syndrome) A newer approach is to combine a CRH stimulation test with a dexamethasone suppression test(4mg ). method : 1 µg / kg of CRH is administered intravenously. ACTH and cortisol levels are measured before CRH injection and 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after injection. A rise in the cortisol value of 20 percent or more above basal level or a rise in the ACTH value of at least 50 percent above basal level is considered evidence for an ACTH-dependent lesion
