Relevance of Endoscopic Ultrasound in Endocrinology Today: Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1, Insulinoma, Primary Aldosteronism—An Expert’s Perspective Based on Three Decades of Scientific and Clinical Experience

SIMPLE SUMMARY: In endocrinology, endoscopic ultrasound is a useful and reliable diagnostic technique in the assessment of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, localizing insulinomas, and identifying aldosterone-producing adenomas. ABSTRACT: In endocrinology, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) may be used to image the adrenals, the endocrine pancreas, and other organs where endocrine neoplasms may occur. During the recent decades, EUS has been established predominantly to assess multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, to localize insulinomas, and to identify aldosterone-producing adenomas. EUS in endocrinology requires special skills and individual experience in order to provide reliable diagnostic information.
