What is VASOACTIVE INTESTINAL POLYPEPTIDE VIP Test?
Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) is a hormone produced in the digestive system. The VIP test measures the level of VIP in the blood. The test is usually ordered to help diagnose a rare condition called VIPoma, which is a tumor that produces VIP. Symptoms of VIPoma include diarrhea, flushing, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Other conditions that may cause elevated VIP levels include pancreatic cancer, carcinoid tumor, and pheochromocytoma.
