Comparison of 99mTc-MIBI planar scintigraphy, SPET/CT and ultrasonography in detection of parathyroid adenoma in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism.

In the preoperative assessment of patients with PHPT combination of imaging methods allows selection of patients who would be suitable for minimally invasive surgery.
