What does cortisone 24 hour, urine ; test mean. and if i was told to get this done, what are the doctor trying to check?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
24 hour cortisol: A 24 hour cortisol/cortisone test collects urine for 24 hours and measures the content of cortisol/cortisone. It is a screening test to see if your system is making too much cortisol (hypercortisolism, also known as Cushing syndrome).
