A member asked:

How high must vasoactive intestinal levels be to indicate a disease process?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

>75: The diagnosis of a vipoma is established by the presence of an otherwise unexplained high volume secretory diarrhea and a serum vip concentration in excess of 75 pg/ml. A single elevated vip level should be confirmed by additional testing.

Dr Villaplana and another doctor agreed
