Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of molecular biology, and in particular relates to a non-functional pituitary adenoma detection device and its application. Background technique
[0002] Pituitary tumor is one of the common neuroendocrine tumors that can lead to the imbalance of pituitary hormone secretion. Its incidence ranks third in the incidence of intracranial tumors after glioma and meningioma. Epidemiological studies have shown that the incidence rate of pituitary tumors in the general population is as high as 16.7%, and they can occur at any age, most of whom are 30-50 years old. Nonfunctioning adenomas account for about 15%-54% of pituitary tumors. Because non-functioning pituitary adenomas cannot show hormone-related syndromes and lack obvious relevant clinical symptoms, early diagnosis in clinical practice is quite difficult.
[0003] Patients with pituitary tumors may have clinical manifestations ranging in severity at different periods...
