Our results suggested that at present none of the studied imaging modalities alone are adequate for locating enlarged parathyroid gland(s)inpatients with hyperparathyroidism.Shyh-Jen Wang林萬鈺Shiaw-Pyng WeyWuu-Jyh LinLie-Hang ShenHenton Huang
Parathyroid scans are not recommended for pregnant women because of the potential harm to the developing fetus. People who have had another recent nuclear medicine procedure or an intravenous contrast test may need to wait until the earlier radioactive markers have been eliminated from their system ...
CT is recommended for precise localization of these adenomas in individuals who are greater operative risks than normal and in patients who have recurrence of disease following subtotal parathyroidectomy.关键词: Parathyroid adenoma CT parathyroid Ectopic parathyroid adenomas ...
At operation, 90 patients (87%) had solitary parathyroid adenoma; 12 patients had multiglandular disease. In one patient no enlarged parathyroid gland was found. Overall 77 of 118 abnormal glands (65%) were correctly identified by sestamibi scintigraphy. The sensitivity for localizing a single ...
A thyroid scan can provide information on the size and shape of the gland as well as the overall activity of the gland (is the whole thyroid gland overactive or underactive?). For example, thyroid scanning is used to determine how active thyroid tissue is in manufacturing thyroid hormone. Th...

He had been diagnosed with MEN type 1, 8 years previously after two perforated jejunal ulcers (1978, 1990) led to a diagnosis of Zollinger–Ellison syndrome, and a hyperplastic parathyroid gland had been removed for hypercalcaemia (1990). His mother had MEN type 1. Ophthalmic examination ...
Tc-99m sestamibi parathyroid gland scintigraphy: added value of Tc-99m pertechnetate thyroid imaging for increasing interpretation confidence and avoiding ... To evaluate the benefit of adding a pertechnetate parathyroid scan (dual-isotope imaging) in the interpretation of sestamibi dual-phase parathy...
Iterative reconstruction: an improvement of technetium-99m MIBI SPET for the detection of parathyroid adenomas? The purpose of this study was to assess the value of technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) single-photon emission tomography (SPET) and an iterat... D Moka,W Eschner,E Vo...
Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT/CT SCINTIGRAPHY AND ULTRASOUND OF THE ANTERIOR NECK REGION IN DIAGNOSING PARATHYROID GLAND PATHOLOGY IN PATIENTS WITH THYROID NODULES Parathyroid scintigraphy with Tc-99m-MIBI is an imaging technique used in nuclear medicine and performed in patients with suspected hyperparathyroidism ...
