Hi,
At present we are using 24hr urinary VMA for the diagnosis of phaeos but are
under pressure from our endocrinologists to switch to another method. Having
read the paper by Landers et al in JAMA (vol287, p1427, 2002) on the
biochemical diagnosis of phaeos I was wondering what other people use and/or
what method is now considered the gold standard for this diagnosis.
Thanks,
Ian Mc
