Comparison of Cortisol, Androstenedione and Metanephrines to Assess Selectivity and Lateralization of Adrenal Vein Sampling in Primary Aldosteronism

Success of adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is verified by the selectivity index (SI), i.e., by a step-up of cortisol levels between the adrenal vein and the infrarenal inferior vena cava samples, beyond a given cut-off.
