Interpretation of Abnormal Dexamethasone Suppression Test is Enhanced With Use of Synchronous Free Cortisol Assessment

Natalia Genere et al.

Summary: This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the normal ranges of free cortisol during the dexamethasone suppression test (DST) and identify the population of patients where post-DST free cortisol measurements are valuable in the diagnostic workup. The study found that post-DST free cortisol measurements are valuable in patients with optimal dexamethasone concentrations and post-DST total cortisol between 1.8 and 5 mcg/dL.

Biochemical diagnosis of Cushing's disease: Screening and confirmatory testing

Stephan Petersenn

Summary: Diagnosis of Cushing's disease is often delayed due to its variable clinical features and rarity, highlighting the need for increased awareness and availability of simple and accurate screening tests. Tests such as LNSC, DST, and UFC have shown high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing Cushing's syndrome, but their preference varies depending on specific clinical conditions and patient groups. It is important to consult with an expert endocrinologist to choose the most appropriate test for individual patients, as discussed in this review.

Method-Specific Cortisol and Dexamethasone Thresholds Increase Clinical Specificity of the Dexamethasone Suppression Test for Cushing Syndrome

Nora Vogg et al.

Summary: The dexamethasone suppression test is crucial for suspected Cushing syndrome, and quantification of serum dexamethasone can enhance test performance. A normal lower limit of 1.8 ng/mL was established for dexamethasone, with factors like renal function and diabetes impacting serum concentration.

Consensus on diagnosis and management of Cushing's disease: a guideline update

Maria Fleseriu et al.

Summary: Cushing's disease requires accurate diagnosis, careful treatment selection, and long-term management. The Pituitary Society convened a consensus workshop to discuss recent evidence and clinical practice. Recommendations regarding lab tests, imaging, and treatment options were collated and discussed, with focus on future research topics.
