The Utility of Multidetector Computed Tomography for Detection of Parathyroid Disease in the Setting of Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Abstract
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in the detection of parathyroid adenoma and hyperplasia in the setting of primary hyperparathyroidism.
METHODS: Records of 48 patients with biochemically confirmed primary hyperparathyroidism, who underwent preoperative imaging with 16- or 64-slice contrast-enhanced MDCT and subsequent successful parathyroidectomy over a 3-year period, were …
