Overview

MRI scan is performed in cases of hypogonadism to examine the pituitary gland and hypothalamus to detect any tumors that may cause hypogonadism. It is performed in specific patients who present with visual disorders, neurological manifestations and lab findings of hypopituitarism. Possible findings may include empty sella turcica and pituitary adenomas.
