Hormone and Metabolic Research, 06/29/09
Unger N et al. - Measurement of metanephrines instead of catecholamines by either technique improved the diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of pheochromocytomas. Determination of plasma free metanephrines demonstrated a higher accuracy than their urinary counterparts. The use of immunoassays may be an alternative to the laborious HPLC, although the method needs to be evaluated in more detail.
