Pediatric Neuroblastoma Diagnosis Using Urinary Catecholamine Metabolites
Pediatric Neuroblastoma Diagnosis Using Urinary Catecholamine Metabolites Overview Urinary catecholamine metabolite analysis is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of neuroblastoma. There is currently no agreement with regard to the method of sampling and variable catecholamine metabolite combinations being utilized. In this study, we assessed the reliability of spot urine samples in
