Overview of the ACTH Test (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone)
The ACTH test measures the pituitary hormone that stimulates cortisol release; it is essential for diagnosing adrenal insufficiency, Cushing’s syndrome, and ectopic ACTH-producing tumors. يُستخدم اختبار ACTH لتقييم وظائف الغدة الكظرية وتشخيص اضطرابات مثل مرض كوشينغ وقصور الكظر.
| Feature | Our ACTH Test (DHA Licensed) | Standard Lab Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-Analytical Handling | Pre-chilled EDTA tube, immediate centrifugation & freezing at -20°C, strict cold-chain transport | Often room temperature processing, delayed freezing – risk of hormone degradation |
| Methodology | Chemiluminescent Immunoassay (CLIA) with validated analytical sensitivity and rigorous quality controls | Same CLIA platform but without enforced cold-chain, potentially affecting precision |
| Turnaround Time | 5–7 working days (due to controlled batch referral for optimal accuracy) | Typically 7–10 working days, longer if re-collection needed |
| Accreditation | ISO 9001:2015 (Cert: INT/EGQ/2509DA/3139), DHA Facility License #9834453 | May lack internationally recognized pre-analytical certification |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As your consultant endocrinologist, I understand the anxiety that hormonal testing can cause. Rest assured, our team follows international guidelines to ensure your ACTH sample is collected and processed with the utmost precision, because an accurate diagnosis starts with uncompromised pre-analytical handling.”

⚠️ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Abrupt cessation of steroids or other hormonal therapies can be dangerous.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags

- Red Flags (seek emergency care immediately): Severe dizziness or fainting after collection, sudden intense abdominal pain, confusion, or profound hypotension – these may indicate acute adrenal crisis.
