Overview of the Catecholamines Blood Test
Catecholamines are hormones produced by adrenal glands, released into the body in response to physical or emotional stress. The catecholamines test includes dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine (also known as adrenaline). Catecholamine tests measure the amount of these hormones in the blood. If the value of dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine is higher than normal it can indicate a serious health condition. In case rare tumours of the adrenal glands called pheochromocytomas and rare tumours that occur outside the adrenal glands called paragangliomas produce a large amount of the hormones, resulting in significantly increased concentrations of catecholamine-secreting pheochromocytomas or paraganglioma.
