Objective: Study of the efficacy of SSA in the biochemical and tumour control and the relation between the T2-weighted MRI signal intensity and the response to SSA.Material and methods: 16 patients with GH-secreting pituitary adenomas (7♂/9♀) that received primary or pre-operative treatment with SSA. We classified them according to baseline T2-weighted MRI sequences as Hypo-intense (Ha) and No-Hypo-intense adenomas (no-Ha). Results expressed ...
