Abstract Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine disorder that often requires surgical intervention. Preoperative localization of parathyroid lesions is critical for successful surgery. This study compares the diagnostic value of 99mTc‐MIBI/99mTcO4− dual‐isotope SPECT/CT fusion imaging and ultrasonography (US) in patients ...
