Endocrine Disease Tests and Treatments at UPMC

Some of the most common endocrine system tests and treatments we offer at UPMC include:

• Radiofrequency ablation (RFA). RFA uses heat to safely shrink non-cancerous growths (nodules) on your thyroid.
• Thyroid fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy. This minimally invasive test uses thin needles to help your doctor learn if a thyroid lump is cancerous or not.
• Thyroid ultrasound. This painless imaging test helps us diagnose all types of thyroid problems.
