A number of clinical studies are being undertaken into the management of patients with pituitary tumours in conjunction with members of the Department of Endocrinology.  Mr Nicholas Maartens has developed a comprehensive database to identify those clinical and laboratory factors that will optimise the management of patients with pituitary tumours.  International collaborations are numerous and include countries as diverse as the United States of America (Stanford University) and Iran (Tehran University).  Members of the Department participated in a study with the Department of Endocrinology which has resulted in redefining the use of steroid medication following pituitary surgery.  This has now been adopted internationally.

Yes, I want to join the fight against pituitary tumours and make a donation.
