Pituitary Disorders of Childhood: Diagnosis and Clinical Management focuses on clinical disorders of the pituitary gland in children with specific emphasis on stateof-the-art diagnostic and treatment modalities for pediatric pituitary disorders, highlighting the newest scientific advances in genomics and molecular biology that clinician-scientists caring for children need to know. Recent advances in neuroimaging of the pituitary gland and optic nerve pathways, the molecular characterization of pituitary tumors and genetic alterations involved in familial and sporadic pituitary tumorigenesis, advances in the neurobiology and genetics of growth and puberty, and results of long-term outcome data of treatment modalities, including CNS radiation, are described in detail.
