Feasibility of portable gamma camera imaging in intraoperative radioguided parathyroid adenoma identification
Novel surgical applications include radioguided procedures in parathyroidectomy operations. In order to investigate the feasibility of usage of the portable gamma camera in parathyroidectomy operations; intraoperative radioguided parathyroidectomy operation was performed in three hyperparathyroidism patients with inconclusive preoperative parathyroid scintigraphy results. Intraoperative portabl...

BACKGROUND Improvements in the accuracy of preoperative localization and the availability of the rapid parathyroid hormone assay have permitted minimally invasive parathyroidectomy in patients with primary hyperparathyoidism. HYPOTHESIS The use of intraoperative radioguidance is beneficial during targeted parathyroid operations. DESIGN A retrospective analysis of a prospective database of p...
متن کاملIncremental diagnostic value of preoperative 99mTc-MIBI SPECT in patients with a parathyroid adenoma.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of early parathyroid SPECT combined with quantitative analysis as compared with planar imaging in patients undergoing minimally invasive radioguided surgery. METHODS A total of 52 consecutive patients with primary hyperparathyroidism underwent planar and SPECT parathyroid scintigraphy 2-5 d before surgery. E...
متن کاملParathyroid adenoma Localization
Background: Bilateral neck exploration is the gold standard for parathyroid adenoma localization in primary hyperparathyroidism. But surgeons do not have adequate experience for accurate surgical exploration and new methods are developed for surgery like unilateral exploration and minimally invasive surgery, thus, preoperative localization could reduces time and stress in surgical performance....
متن کاملResults of the radioguided surgeries among the patients with pathological nipple discharge
Introduction: Nipple discharge is the third most common complaint of the breast diseases following the breast mass and the breast pain. The majority of the lesions causing pathological nipple discharge (PND) consist of non-palpable breast lesions (NPBLs). When non-operative diagnostic tools are inadequate to distinguish the diagnosis, the pathological duct should be removed to ...
