Detail Description

5-HIAA (5-HYDROXY INDOLE ACETIC ACID) RANDOM URINE Test - Cost, Symptoms, Diagnosis

DNA Labs India offers the 5-HIAA (5-Hydroxy Indole Acetic Acid) Random Urine Test at a cost of INR 5000. This test helps in diagnosing tumors that produce serotonin. These tumors are called carcinoid tumors and are usually found in the gastrointestinal tract.

Symptoms

The symptoms of carcinoid tumors can vary depending on where the tumor is located. Some common symptoms include:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Flushing of the skin
  • Wheezing
  • Unexplained weight gain or loss

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to speak with your doctor to determine if further testing is necessary.

Diagnosis

The 5-HIAA Random Urine Test is used to diagnose carcinoid tumors. The test measures the amount of 5-HIAA in the urine. 5-HIAA is a byproduct of serotonin, which is produced by carcinoid tumors. An elevated level of 5-HIAA in the urine can indicate the presence of a carcinoid tumor.

If the test results are positive, your doctor may order additional tests such as a CT scan or MRI to determine the size and location of the tumor.

Conclusion

The 5-HIAA Random Urine Test is an important diagnostic tool for detecting carcinoid tumors. If you are experiencing symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, flushing of the skin, wheezing, or unexplained weight gain or loss, it is important to speak with your doctor about the possibility of a carcinoid tumor. The 5-HIAA Random Urine Test is a simple and effective test that can help in the early detection of these tumors.
