F18-choline
Brief summary
The rationale for the proposed pilot study is to investigate the ability of PET-CT with F18-choline to detect and locate the parathyroid adenoma in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and negative or non-contributory MIBI (Tc-99m sestamibi) and cervical ultrasound, in order to avoid unnecessary bilateral cervical exploration.
Interventions
F18-choline PET examination will be performed before surgery
