24 Hour Urinary Cortisol (BC0017)

Description

24-Hour Urinary Cortisol is a urine test used to measure the total amount of cortisol excreted in urine over a full 24-hour period. It is a key test for evaluating adrenal gland function and is commonly used in the diagnosis and monitoring of Cushing’s syndrome, hypercortisolism, and other disorders of cortisol excess. By assessing cortisol secretion throughout the day, this test helps overcome normal diurnal variations and provides a reliable measure of overall cortisol production.
