WILLIAM F. YOUNG, JR., MD, MSC

Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, Metabolism, and Nutrition, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA

The goal of this interactive session is to provide a fast-paced and clinically engaging session where “bite-sized” pieces of clinically relevant information are shared. Clinical scenarios will be presented that illustrate clinically important endocrine teaching points, “Endocrine Pearls”, which are relevant to the practicing endocrinologist but not widely appreciated. I will present approximately 8 cases in the following format: Case presentation Multiple choice question based on the case Use audience response system to weigh in on the best answer Review the answers Review the correct answer and provide the pearl(s) Move on to the next case After the last case we will have time for questions and answers An electronic PDF of the correct answers and pearls learned will be provided at the conclusion of the session.
