Fig. 1B —64-year-old man with primary hyperparathyroidism referred for
parathyroid imaging before anticipated minimally invasive gamma
probe–guided parathyroidectomy. Multiplanar SPECT/CT (B)
pinpoints this uptake to 11-mm left paratracheal nodule (arrow) that
was overlooked on earlier chest CT (arrow, C). This uptake is
just inferior in relation to left thyroid lobe in left
tracheal–esophageal groove, 2–3 cm above axial level of sternal
notch. At surgery, 1,400 mg left inferior parathyroid adenoma was resected
from this location.
