    What is a Metanephrines, 24 hours Urine Test?

    The Metanephrines 24-hour urine test measures the levels of Metanephrines in urine for a full day. Metanephrines are the byproducts resulting from the breakdown of adrenaline and noradrenaline in the adrenal gland. This test is primarily used to detect the presence of pheochromocytomas or other rare tumours that produce excess catecholamines. It also helps identify conditions that may cause episodes of high blood pressure, headaches, and palpitations.

    By collecting urine over 24 hours, the test offers a comprehensive assessment of hormone activity related to adrenal gland function.
