Purpose The preferred nuclear medicine method for identification of hyperfunctioning
parathyroid glands in hyperparathyroidism (HPT) develops continuously in relation to the …

Preoperative molecular imaging is paramount to direct surgery in primary
hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). We investigated the diagnostic performance of 18F …

Purpose Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder which is diagnosed
biochemically and for which therapy is surgical. A prerequisite for minimally invasive …

Purpose In this prospective study we compared the accuracy of 18 F-fluorocholine PET/CT
with that of 99m Tc-MIBI or 99m Tc-tetrofosmin SPECT/CT in the preoperative detection of …

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disorder, definitive treatment
usually requiring surgical removal of the offending parathyroid glands. To perform focused …

Introduction: Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (tHP) may develop in patients treated with
hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. Parathyroidectomy may result in a significant reduction …

Objectives. We compared five parathyroid scintigraphy protocols in patients with primary
(pHPT) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) and studied the interobserver …

Abstract Objective 11 C-Methionine PET/CT (C-MET) is a promising method in detecting
abnormal parathyroid glands in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). The first …

Aim To evaluate the usefulness of 11 C-methionine PET/CT (MET) in the localization of the
parathyroid adenomas and to compare the results with those obtained with the conventional …

Objective The purpose of this study was to compare the sensitivity of single-photon emission
computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) using 99m Tc-sestamibi (MIBI) …
