Overview
According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, screening for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 by RET gene testing is recommended for children with increased risk of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2.
Screening
- Screening for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 include the following tests.
