A 60-year-old man suffered from 6 months of severe headaches and excessive perspiration, he also became aware that he had developed tunnel vision. He had a 12-yr history of hypertension and vague aches and pains in his shoulder and hand joints that were diagnosed as osteoarthrosis. On examination by his GP, he was found to have course facial features, a prominent jaw. He had bitemporal hemianopia, BP 145/105 mmHG and a slight glycosuria. He was sent for a lateral skull x-ray that showed an enlarged pituitary fossa. Blood tests showed: Fasting glucose 9.2 (Reference range 3.5-6.5 mmol/l) Luteinizing hormone 3.7 (Reference range 0.7-6.0 U/l) Follicle stimulating hormone 4.8 (Reference range <6 U/l) Prolactin 295 (Reference range <425 mU/l) Testosterone 18.1 (Reference range10-35 nmol/l) Growth hormone 8.0 (Reference range <10 mU/l) Cortisol (random) 458 (Reference range 250-700 nmol/l) TSH 3.2 (Reference range 0.3-6.0 mU/l) Free T4 15.6 (Reference range 9.4-25.0 pmol/l) What further biochemical tests would you perform?
