Performance of Vasopressin Stimulated Bilateral Inferior Petrosal Sinus Sampling in Corticotropin Dependent Cushing’s Syndrome with Negative or Equivocal 3 Tesla Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Pituitary

Introduction: Corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH)-stimulated bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) is the most accurate procedure in the differential diagnosis of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing’s syndrome (CS) with a sensitivity of 88–100% and a specificity of 67...
