Variable analysis
- Time relative to hypophysitis diagnosis (<40 days, >40 days)
- Appearance of the pituitary gland (normal, enlarged, small/empty or partially empty sella)
- Pituitary gland imaging (post-contrast T1-weighted images, either small-field-of-view 2D sagittal and coronal imaging or high-resolution isotropic 3D imaging of the brain)
- Reviewer (board-certified neuroradiologist J.V.M.)
- Blinding (re-review of all patient MRIs was performed blinded to time of onset of hypophysitis)

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
