NSE is useful in monitoring disease progression and therapy in patients with small cell lung cancer and neuroendocrine tumors such as neuroblastoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma, and pheochromocytoma, and other malignancies such as pancreatic islet cell carcinoma

A progesterone test measures the amount of the hormone progesterone in a blood sample.

Your adrenal glands are two small pieces of tissue that sit atop each kidney.
