Cushing syndrome, a multisystem endocrine disorder caused by a prolonged excess of circulating cortisol, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Patients with Cushing syndrome are also at increased risk for heart attack, stroke, diabetes, high cholesterol, depression, anxiety, bone fractures, blood clots, and infections. Timely diagnosis of Cushing syndrome is thus, critical to enable prompt treatment and improve patient outcomes. Increase your competence to diagnose or refer patients with Cushing syndrome by competing in this live quiz-show style interactive symposium. You and your team will “race” for first place by answering a series of case-based questions. Along the race “course,” expert faculty will deliver content presentations related to early recognition and screening, diagnosis, and management of Cushing syndrome. You won’t want to miss this unique symposium - register now!
