Endocrinology. what specific blood test covers pit & hypothalmus, thymus adrenal glands.no acth allowed, scans wont be read anywhere in uk, need closure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are a: Multitude of tests that relate to the pituitary and hypothalamus plus the other endocrine glands -- but not the thymus, which is in a different body system. I don't know why your scans couldn't be read by someone in the uk. You need to discuss this with your doctors.
