Cushing Syndrome: History, Diagnosis, and Treatment is written by top experts on the latest in genetics, molecular advances, and the diagnosis and treatment of Cushing syndrome. The book takes a historical approach to discuss the tremendous and unprecedented research development for this rare condition and includes information on recently approved treatments. It attempts to provide information on most issues surrounding Cushing syndrome and how to deal with its complications, the widening understanding of functional hypercortisolemia and other causes of endogenous cortisol production and its old and new treatment modalities, from pituitary to adrenal tumors, ectopic ACTH production, subclinical, cyclical Cushing syndrome, to aging and metabolic syndrome.The book has a section dedicated to our patients with the patients’ experiences, which will add to the outcome research presented by the physicians. This is a must have reference for scientists and researchers with the latest information in diagnosing and treating this difficult-to-diagnos... and difficult-to-treat condition and gives the clinician, a patient-centric approach to communicate with this particular group of patients.

How Sex and Gender Impact Clinical Practice: A Personalized Approach to Patient Care, 2nd edition continues to provide content that can be readily utilized by the primary care clinician within their daily practice. The unique application framework assists practitioners in the application of sex and gender differences. It aligns sex and gender medicine with the emergence of precision medicine. Health care consumers are becoming increasingly aware of sex and gender issues related to their health and the clinicians who incorporate this approach into their practice attract an increasing number of patients who seek providers who “know the difference.” This book fills an important need by applying the findings that uniquely characterize the male and female patient to protocols for optimal clinical care and the detection and prevention of disease. This second edition provides updated evidence-based information on disease prevalence, diagnosis, testing, and treatment, and covers new topics such as sex differences in thyroid disease, pain and hypertension. Chapters have been updated to reflect the influences of sex and gender on disease clinical presentation, physical examination, laboratory and imaging testing, treatment and prognosis, and how these differences impact clinical decision-making.

A Practical Handbook of Endocrine Imaging is to help professionals who are not familiar with the exact role and ability of imaging in endocrine diseases. In particular, the strengths and weaknesses of different imaging modalities, their order of selection and application in endocrine diseases. Imaging is not conventionally included in medical school training and during specialist training. Understanding which imaging test to use, exactly what clinical question is addressed is key to timely diagnosis of disease. This book is a quick reference to select the order and type of imaging, to be guided through clinical scenarios with relevant imaging pathways.
