Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The leading cause of primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is a solitary adenoma (89%). The treatment of pHPT is generally surgical removal of the overactive parathyroid gland(s). Since a solitary adenoma is the predominant cause, parathyroid surgery is preferably performed through a minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) in which only the suspected adenoma causing the pHPT is resected in a focused manner. To facilitate the performance of a MIP, accurate preoperative imaging is pivotal. This study aimed to analyze the diagnostic performance of 11C-choline PET/CT after prior negative or discordant first-line imaging in patients with pHPT undergoing parathyroid surgery with an optimized imaging protocol.

  2. Positive predictive value of 11C-choline PET/CT [Until 6 months after parathyroid surgery]

    Per-lesion positive predictive value of 11C-choline PET/CT for the detection of overactive parathyroid glands

  3. Accuracy of 11C-choline PET/CT [Until 6 months after parathyroid surgery]

    Per-lesion accuracy of 11C-choline PET/CT for the detection of overactive parathyroid glands
