Biochemical testing to differentiate Cushing's disease from ectopic ACTH syndrome.

Amandine Ferriere1, Antoine Tabarin2.   

Abstract

The differential diagnosis of ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome is often a diagnostic challenge that has been debated in numerous studies. In this short article, we will discuss the performance and main drawbacks of the biochemical tests used for this diagnosis.
