The role of preoperative ultrasound, contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and 99mTc-MIBI scanning with single-photon emission computed tomography/X-ray computed tomography localization in refractory secondary hyperparathyroidism.

CONCLUSIONS: The combination of US with SPECT/CT is the best choice for the comprehensive preoperative localization of glands in refractory SHPT. CEUS can elevate the accuracy of US in differential diagnosis via the interpretation of dynamic microvascular features. PMID: 31868660 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
