👉 Tonotaxis, also known as an endocrine nodule or a tumor of the pituitary gland, is a type of growth that occurs in the pituitary gland. This gland regulates various hormones and neurotransmitters in the body, including thyroid hormones, prolactin, and somatostatin. Tonotaxis can be characterized by the presence of large masses of cells that appear to be growing rapidly or uncontrolled. These masses may be located anywhere on the pituitary gland,
