99mTc-Sestamibi (SeS) is a standard tool for localization of adenomas/hyperplasia (PA) in hyperparathyroidism (HPTH), designed on the difference between thyroid and parathyroid tissue radiotracer washout on early and late scintigraphy phases. However, PA have been reported to washout as fast as normal thyroid tissue (‘rapid washout’, RW), which may lead to diagnostic failure. The aim of the study was to determine a correlation of RW of SeS from parathyroid...
