Differences in accuracy of 99mTc-sestamibi scanning between severe and mild forms of primary hyperparathyroidism.
UNLABELLED Preoperative localization of the parathyroids using (99m)Tc-sestamibi scanning has not yet been established as a routine diagnostic procedure for primary hyperparathyroidism. Several studies have demonstrated a variable degree of accuracy (70%-98%) in asymptomatic patients. METHODS We evaluated the accuracy of this technique in 64 patients who underwent scanning between January 200...
متن کامل99mTc-sestamibi and minimally invasive radioguided surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism.
The management of primary hyperparathyroidism is not without controversy. There is controversy as to which imaging technique (if any) should be used to localize a parathyroid adenoma (1,2). There is controversy as to when surgery should be recommended in an asymptomatic patient; although some would argue that all patients are symptomatic but simply do not realize it! There is also controversy a...
متن کاملParathyroid scintigraphy in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism: 99mTc sestamibi SPECT and SPECT/CT.
The clinical diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism is based largely on serum laboratory test results, as patients often are asymptomatic. Surgery, often with bilateral exploration of the neck, has been considered the definitive treatment for symptomatic disease. However, given that approximately 90% of cases are due to a single parathyroid adenoma, a better treatment may be the selective sur...

Planar scintigraphy with 123I/99mTc-sestamibi, 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT, 11C-methionine PET/CT, or selective venous sampling before reoperation of primary hyperparathyroidism?
UNLABELLED All patients with primary hyperparathyroidism should undergo localization studies before reoperation, but it is not known which method is most accurate. The purpose of this prospective study was to compare the performance of planar scintigraphy with (123)I/(99m)Tc-sestamibi, (99m)Tc-sestamibi SPECT (SPECT/CT), (11)C-methionine PET/CT, and selective venous sampling (SVS) in persistent...
