Abstract: Recent advances in preoperative imaging techniques and intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) assays have made single‐gland, minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) the preferred treatment option for most patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). Despite this evolution, a recommendation… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Four-dimensional (4D) CT localization allows minimally invasive parathyroidectomy as treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but false positive localization is frequent. We sought to characterize the ability of 4D CT to predict four-gland hyperplasia (HP)… read more here.
