What is a renin stimulation test?
The renin stimulation test is performed to help diagnose and distinguish the two forms of hyperaldosteronism.
What is cortisol stem test?
The cortisol stimulation test, also known as the cosyntropin stimulation test, is a medical test used to diagnose adrenal insufficiency. It involves measuring the cortisol levels in the blood before and after the injection of cosyntropin, a synthetic form of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This test helps assess the ability of the adrenal glands to produce cortisol in response to stimulation.
Cold stimulation test for Raynaud's phenomenon?
The cold stimulation test for Raynaud's phenomenon involves immersing the hands or fingers in cold water to trigger a vascular response. This test helps to diagnose Raynaud's by observing changes in color and temperature of the fingers after exposure to cold. A positive test is indicated by a triphasic response of pallor, cyanosis, and then erythema in the fingers.
What is the test you performed that involves the stimulation of ascending and descending spinal cord tracts?
the Babinski Test
What is the test that records neuromuscular activity by the electric stimulation of nerves?
Electromyography
What is the corticotropin-releasing hormone stimulation test for?
The CRH stimulation test is given to help distinguish between patients with pituitary adenomas and those with either ectopic ACTH syndrome or cortisol-secreting adrenal tumors.
What is a pentagastrin stimulation test?
In doubtful cases of medullary carcinoma of thyroid, a pentagastrin stimulation test is done. Pentagastrin 0.5 µg/kg is given intravenously. Levels increase in medullary carcinoma of the thyroid but remain unchanged in normals.

Is a diagnostic test that measures the electrical activity within muscles fibers in response to nerve stimulation?
