Video Summary
The webinar discussed the challenges of diagnosing Cushing's syndrome, emphasizing the importance of clinical suspicion and thorough history and examination. The discriminatory signs of Cushing's were highlighted, and different diagnostic tests such as urinary free cortisol, dexamethasone suppression test, and late-night salivary cortisol were discussed. Case studies were presented to illustrate the diagnostic process. The video also featured discussions on the use of the desmopressin test in the differential diagnosis of ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome and the role of IPSS in determining the origin of ACTH. Collaboration between endocrinologists and neurosurgeons was emphasized for effective diagnosis and treatment. This summary is a brief overview of the main points discussed in the video.
