Endocrinology: questions, guidelines and a worked example

Endocrine questions often turn on a lab threshold or an imaging feature. Give each value with its units and your laboratory's reference range, and say whether the patient takes drugs that interfere with the test.

Typical questions in endocrinology

Examples you can ask as written:

  • When should subclinical hypothyroidism be treated?
  • How should I evaluate hypercalcemia with a high or normal PTH?
  • Which test should I use first to screen for Cushing syndrome?
  • How should I start and titrate basal insulin in type 2 diabetes?

Guideline bodies to check

When an answer cites one of these, open it and check its year and the patients it covers:

  • Endocrine Society: clinical practice guidelines.
  • American Thyroid Association (ATA); ACR TI-RADS and EU-TIRADS for thyroid nodules.
  • European Society of Endocrinology (ESE), for example on adrenal incidentaloma with ENSAT.
  • ADA and EASD for diabetes, and your national endocrine society.

Example: a question and what a cited answer includes

Question: “What workup does an incidentally found adrenal mass need?” A useful answer:

  • Cites the 2023 ESE/ENSAT guideline: a homogeneous mass under 4 cm with 10 Hounsfield units or less on unenhanced CT is benign and needs no further imaging.
  • Recommends a 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test in every patient to look for cortisol excess.
  • Adds screening for primary aldosteronism with hypertension or hypokalemia, and metanephrines when the imaging is not clearly benign.
  • Links the guideline so you can check each threshold.

What you can ask in endocrinology

From diabetes management to incidental findings, grounded in current evidence.

Diabetes therapy escalation

Clarify when and how to escalate therapy in type 2 diabetes, weighing glycemic targets alongside cardiovascular and renal benefits of each agent.

Thyroid nodule evaluation

Work through the assessment of a thyroid nodule, from TSH and ultrasound risk stratification to the indications for fine-needle aspiration.

Adrenal incidentaloma

Structure the workup of an incidentally found adrenal mass, including hormonal evaluation and imaging features that suggest malignancy.

Evidence-based search built for clinicians

Ask any clinical question and get a concise, cited answer drawn from peer-reviewed literature and clinical guidelines.

Explore potential documentation gaps

Review available, supported records for potential billing details and documentation gaps. Validate findings against the complete clinical context.

Evidence at your fingertips

Explore available clinical guidelines and literature, and check the sources and relevance of each finding before applying it.

Findings for clinical review

Surface potential clinical risks and documentation gaps in supported records for professional review. Timing and coverage depend on the configured workflow.

Review potential billing gaps

Identify possible missing charges or coding gaps in supported records. Billing professionals validate the documentation and applicable payer rules before making changes.

Frequently asked questions

Does Arkangel AI cite its endocrinology sources?

Yes. Every answer links to the peer-reviewed studies and guidelines it draws from, so you can verify the evidence before acting.

Is this a replacement for clinical judgment?

No. Arkangel AI is clinical decision support. It accelerates evidence retrieval but does not replace your assessment of the individual patient.

Can I ask about the latest diabetes guidelines?

Yes. Ask for the current evidence-based approach and Arkangel AI summarizes the relevant guideline recommendations with sources.

Clinical decision support, not a replacement

Arkangel AI supports clinical decision-making and does not replace clinician judgment. Always confirm recommendations against primary sources and your local protocols before acting.
