Prospective Study of Adrenal Disorders: Clinical Registry, Imaging Analysis and Biomaterial Collection

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this research is to follow people with adrenal disorders in order to make conclusions about the natural history of a particular adrenal disease as well as effect of various therapies and interventions decided on by you and your medical team. In addition, we will collect biomaterial from you at times you are being evaluated which will be used to discover novel biomarkers which can potentially improve the accuracy of current diagnostic tests and affect the management of patients with adrenal disorders. We will also include a control group (without known adrenal disease) to compare to the volunteers with adrenal disorders.
