Explanation:

Endocrinology can be defined as a filed in internal medicine that deals with the study of the endocrine system.

The main purpose of this specialized field is to have professionals (endocrinologists) carry out diagnosis and the management of endocrine conditions such as glucose level monitoring.

Medical terms for endocrine system procedures consist of the name of the gland such as thyroid, testes, pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenals, ovaries, etc and the suffix that identifies the procedure, which is usually an excision.

For example, the medical term "Thyroidectomy" is derived by combining the root word "thyroid" and the suffix "ectomy" (with the excision of thyroid).
