Overview
Other diagnostic studies for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 include molecular genetic testing which include sequence analysis of select exons of mainly 10,11, 13-16 and sequence analysis of RET gene.
Other Diagnostic Studies

Histopathological Staining of the Biopsy
- Histopathological staining of medullary thyroid cancer[1]
- (1) Calcitonin: positive in tumor cells
- (2) Chromogranin: positive in tumor cells
- (3) Synaptophysin: positive in tumor cells
