A Comprehensive Overview of the Parathyroid Tumor From the Past Two Decades: Machine Learning-Based Bibliometric Analysis

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
IntroductionParathyroid tumor, in particular carcinoma, is fairly rare among neoplasms of the endocrine system, unlike its benign counterpart. However, there is no bibliometric analysis in the field of parathyroid tumors comprehensively summarizing and ...

Unilateral Surgery for Primary Hyperparathyroidism on the Basis of Technetium Tc 99m Sestamibi and Iodine 123 Subtraction Scanning [PDF]

Archives of Surgery, 2000
Parathyroid scanning, based on simultaneous recording of technetium Tc 99m sestamibi and iodine 123 images, is able to identify patients with multiple parathyroid gland disease and is a safe imaging technique for unilateral parathyroid surgery.Scintigraphic criteria of eligibility for unilateral surgery were prospectively tested against findings of ...

Cardiac Targeting Peptide, a Novel Cardiac Vector: Studies in Bio-Distribution, Imaging Application, and Mechanism of Transduction

Biomolecules, 2018
Our previous work identified a 12-amino acid peptide that targets the heart, termed cardiac targeting peptide (CTP). We now quantitatively assess the bio-distribution of CTP, show a clinical application with the imaging of the murine heart, and study its

Metabolic and functional imaging employment in the differentiation of brown tumors from bone metastases in a case of primary papillary thyroid cancer and parathyroid adenoma: case report

Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute, 2021
Background Brown tumors are benign osteoclastic bone lesions encountered in patients with hyperparathyroidism. These tumors may demonstrate aggressive, destructive features in the skeleton and imitate metastatic bone lesions, particularly in patients ...

Characteristics of patients with abnormal stress technetium Tc 99m sestamibi SPECT studies without significant coronary artery diameter stenoses [PDF]

Clinical Cardiology, 2003
AbstractBackground: Single‐photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) sestamibi (MIBI) is an excellent tool for detection of coronary artery disease (CAD), preoperative risk assessment, and follow‐up management after coronary revas‐cularization. While the sensitivity of MIBI SPECT for detecting CAD has been reported to exceed 90%, the specificity ...
