Next, you will be asked to lie down tissues being studied. Next, you will be asked to lie down on a flat examination table that is moved into the center of on a flat examination table that is moved into the center of a PET scanner—a doughnut-like shaped machine. This a PET scanner—a doughnut-like shaped machine. This machine detects and records the energy given off by the machine detects and records the energy given off by the tracer substance and, with the aid of a computer, this tracer substance and, with the aid of a computer, this energy is converted into three-dimensional pictures. A energy is converted into three-dimensional pictures. A physician can then look at cross-sectional images of the physician can then look at cross-sectional images of the body organ from any angle in order to detect any functional body organ from any angle in order to detect any functional problems. problems.

Pituitary Gland: is also known as the “master gland” because it secretes many hormones that affect a wide range of behaviors such as growth, pregnancy, mothering, etc.

Thyroid Gland: Secretes hormones involved in metabolism

Hypothyroidism (too little thyroxin) leads to being overweight

Hyperthyroidism (too much thyroxin) leads to weight loss, inability to sleep, excitability, etc.

Adrenal Gland: The outer layer of the adrenal glands secretes cortical steroids which increase resistance to stress and promote muscle development. Cortical steroids also release stored sugar, making energy available for emergencies.

Testosterone: A male sex hormone produced by the testes in the male.

If, in the prenatal period, testosterone is secreted male sex organs develop. However, if testosterone is NOT secreted, female sex organs develop. In adolescence, testosterone aids in the growth of muscle and bone and in the development of primary and secondary sexual characteristics

Estrogen and Progesterone:

female sex hormones secreted by the ovaries

Estrogen is involved in the development of primary and secondary sexual characteristics
