Metanephrines – 24 Hour Urine (BC0100)

Description

Metanephrines – 24 Hour Urine Test is a specialized biochemical test used to measure the total excretion of metanephrines (catecholamine metabolites) over 24 hours. It is primarily used to diagnose pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma, tumors that produce excess catecholamines leading to hypertension, headaches, palpitations, and sweating. This test provides a comprehensive assessment of adrenal hormone activity, helping clinicians in accurate diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning of endocrine disorders.
