Fig. 1B —57-year-old man with persistent primary hyperparathyroidism
after exploratory surgery. Fused multiplanar images from SPECT-CT acquisition
localize uptake to deep-seated left inferior parathyroid adenoma lying
adjacent to anterolateral border of vertebral body (arrows). This was
not seen on sonography because of its position posterior to the trachea.
SPECT-CT guided minimally invasive surgical intervention, which confirmed a
solitary parathyroid adenoma.
