/in /by

From the next chart, endocrine glands and hormones are all included. to develop a project with information on assessment and general information on all mentioned hormones and structures within the normal functioning of endocrine system and main diseases within this system. You will make emphasis in pharmacological and non-pharmacological management; all laboratory tests, as well as image procedures used to diagnosed and treat these conditions. FILLER TEXT
