Localization of Parathyroid Adenomas by Sonography and Technetium Tc 99m Sestamibi Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography Before Minimally Invasive Parathyroidectomy
Abstract
Objective. The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of radiologist-performed sonography as the principal modality for parathyroid localization before minimally invasive parathyroidectomy. Methods. Both sonography and technetium Tc 99m sestamibi single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are commonly performed during imaging evaluation of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPTH). Sonographic examinations ordered...
