Context: The contribution of [18F]F-fluorocholine (FCH)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (nPHPT) remains unknown.
Objective: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of FCH-PET/CT in a cohort of osteoporotic patients with nPHPT and discordant or negative [99mTc]Tc-sestamibi scintigraphy and ultrasonography who all underwent parathyroidectomy (PTX).
Design: Longitudinal retrospective cohort study in patients referred for osteoporosis with mild biological primary hyperparathyroidism.
