Overview
To diagnose multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 2, also called MEN 2, your health care provider will do a physical exam. They will look at your medical history and family history. They also will do genetic testing to see if you have a gene change that causes MEN 2. Blood and urine tests and imaging tests may be done. These may include:
- Calcitonin levels in the blood
- Blood calcium
- Parathyroid hormone levels
- Urine or plasma testing for catecholamines and metanephrines
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- Computerized tomography (CT) scan
- Ultrasound scan
