Background The inability of surgeons to identify parathyroid glands accurately during
cervical endocrine surgery hinders patients from achieving postoperative normocalcemia …

Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is well treatable surgically. Sonography
(US) and sestamibi scintigraphy (MIBI) are used routinely, but it is unclear how valuable they …

Introduction Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is defined by autonomous parathyroid
hormone secretion, which has broad physiologic effects. Parathyroidectomy is the only cure …

Purpose Parathyroid scintigraphy is superior to other imaging techniques in detecting
hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands. It is mainly performed using double-phase or dual …

Objective Parathyroid scintigraphy is mandatory for the identification of hyperfunctioning
parathyroid glands in hyperparathyroidism (HPT). The use of 99mTc-methoxy-isobutyl …

This study aimed to examine the diagnosis performance of 99m Tc-
methoxyisobutylisonitrisonitrile (99m Tc-MIBI) and multimodality imaging [ultrasound, single …

BBACKGROUND: The aim of this paper was to analyse our own semi-quantitative method of
assessing focal lesions localised in pre-operative diagnostic scintigraphy of primary …

Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate our surgical experience in patients
with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with nonlocalizing sestimibi and ultrasound scans …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the predictive value of 25-hydroxyvitamin D,
calcium and parathormone level, co-existence of thyroid nodule, thyroidectomy history and …
