Introduction: The gold standard for evaluating Occult Parathyroid Adenomas (OPa) in patients with biochemical pattern of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the 99mTc-MIBI parathyroid scan. 18F-Fluorocholine (18F-FCH) PET/CT has been proposed as a potential technique for detection and localization of OPa when 99mTc-MIBI scan is negative or inconclusive.Aims: To evaluate sensitivity and positive predictive value of 18F-Fluorocholine PET/CT in patients w...
