- Four-dimensional parathyroid computed tomography (4DCT) is a new imaging technique that offers detailed anatomic and functional information useful for locating parathyroid tumors prior to surgery.
- The study evaluated 55 patients with confirmed primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) who had previously unsuccessful surgeries or imaging and found that 4DCT accurately identified 96% of the tumors.
- The results suggest that 4DCT is effective in distinguishing hypervascular parathyroid adenomas from surrounding tissues, and a three-phase scanning method may be sufficient for assessment.
