Dissectible Me 5 minute anatomy
Science:Life Sciences
This week we talk about 'the master gland'. Getting all Lord of the Rings on you, it’s a gland that rules them all! Or at least one that controls lots of the other endocrine glands in the body.
This podcast covers the many functions of the gland and some of the hormones it produces. We will explore the anatomy and location of the gland, and outline the anatomical reasoning for some of the visual symptoms we see in pituitary tumours.
