Opportunistic Assessment for Parathyroid Adenoma on CT: A Retrospective Cohort Study Evaluating Primary Hyperparathyroidism-Associated Morbidity Over 10 Years of Follow-Up

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: BACKGROUND. Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is underdiagnosed. Opportunistic imaging-based parathyroid gland assessment is a proposed strategy for identifying patients at increased risk of undiagnosed PHPT. However, whether this approach is likely to identify individuals with clinically significant disease is unknown.
