Nonparametric Determination of Reference Intervals for Plasma Metanephrine and Normetanephrine [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2004 Measurement of plasma metanephrine and normetanephrine concentrations has recently been acknowledged as one of the leading tests for the diagnosis of the neuroendocrine tumor, pheochromocytoma (1). The occurrence of the tumor is rare, and it is often difficult to diagnose.

Urinary and plasma catecholamines and metanephrines in dogs with pheochromocytoma, hypercortisolism, nonadrenal disease and in healthy dogs. [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of pheochromocytoma (PC) is based on a combination of clinical suspicion, finding an adrenal mass, increased plasma, and urine concentrations of catecholamine metabolites and is finally confirmed with histopathology.

Unilateral and Bilateral Adrenalectomy for Pheochromocytoma Requires Adjustment of Urinary and Plasma Metanephrine Reference Ranges [PDF]
, 2013 Context: Follow-up after adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma is recommended because of a recurrence risk. During follow-up, plasma and/or urinary metanephrine (MN) and normetanephrine (NMN) are interpreted using reference ranges obtained in healthy ...
