Efficacy of ultrasonography and Tc-99m MIBI SPECT/CT in preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas causing primary hyperthyroidism

Efficacy of ultrasonography and Tc-99m MIBI SPECT/CT in preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas causing primary hyperthyroidism

Abstract Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) results from an excess of parathyroid hormone (PTH) produced from an overactive parathyroid gland. The study aimed to explore the sonographic features of parathyroid adenomas and assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasonography (US) and Tc-9...
