Abstract: | Twenty-nine women with suspected pituitary adenomas were evaluated with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Twenty-six had prolactin levels less than 100 ng/mL, and three had levels greater than 100. We tried to correlate the clinical findings with the prolactin levels and NMR findings. Pituitary adenomas were detected on NMR even with prolactin levels less than 100 ng/mL. |
