The low-dose dexamethasone suppression (LDDS) test is considered extremely sensitive for hyperadrenocorticism. In approximately 95% of dogs with PDH and up to 100% of dogs with AT, cortisol suppression is inadequate.

Diagnosis of Cushing's disease in dogs requires incorporating information from the history, physical examination, and routine laboratory tests. Canine pituitary dependent hyperadrenocorticism (PDH), also known as Cushing’s disease, is a common endocrine disorder in older dogs.
Apr 2, 2017 · Such failures to meet behavioural expectations is a common factor in requests for the relinquishment and euthanasia of dogs.

Jan 13, 2016 · Test interpretation. When interpreting LDDS test results, first evaluate the eight-hour post-dexamethasone administration cortisol concentration. If it is above the reference range, the dog probably has hyperadrenocorticism (false positive results may occur in dogs with nonadrenal illness).
