Measurements of Plasma-Free Metanephrines by Immunoassay Versus Urinary Metanephrines and Catecholamines by Liquid Chromatography with Amperometric Detection for the Diagnosis of Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma

Measurements of Plasma-Free Metanephrines by Immunoassay Versus Urinary Metanephrines and Catecholamines by Liquid Chromatography with Amperometric Detection for the Diagnosis of Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma

Studies conflict concerning the use of enzyme immunoassays (EIA) for plasma free metanephrines (P-MNs) vs. other methods for pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL) diagnosis. We compared commercially available EIAs for P-MNs with high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) for 24 h-urinary MNs (U-MNs)...
