Abstract:
Dynamic ~(13)N-NH_3 positron emission tomography (PET) imaging was performed in 8 normal subjects and 6 cases of hypopituitarism. The pituitary images were small and delayed, and blood perfusion and radioactive uptake were decreased in hypopituitarism. ~(13)N-NH_3 PET imaging shows diagnostic value in hypopituitarism.
