How We Do It: Adrenal Biopsy and Ablation
Adrenal lesions represent a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that may be benign or malignant. If imaging fails to exclude a lesion as definitely benign or if molecular profiling is required, percutaneous image-guided biopsy may be indicated.

Tunable and Sensitive Detection of Cortisol using Anisotropic Phosphorene with a Surface Plasmon Resonance Technique: Numerical Investigation [PDF]
Tunable and ultrasensitive surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors are highly desirable for monitoring stress hormones such as cortisol, a steroid hormone formed in the adrenal glands in the human body. This paper describes the detection of cortisol using a bimetallic SPR sensor based on highly anisotropic two-dimensional material, i.e., phosphorene ...
