Contains fulltext : 294353.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) is one of the preoperative imaging modalities that can be used to localize a parathyroid adenoma in primary hyperparathyroidism patients however, sensitivity differs in literature and could be improved especially for multiglandular hyperplasia or double adenomas. The most robust feature on the 4DCT for the differentiation between parathyroid adenoma and thyroid gland tissue is arterial enhancement. To make this better visible, we have developed a subtraction map that shows arterial enhancement as a color scale to increase sensitivity for 4DCT. In this report of 3 cases, we present the usefulness of this subtraction map in a 54-year-old male, a 57-year-old female and a 51-year-old male. Subtraction maps may increase sensitivity for 4DCT, especially for multiglandular hyperplasia or double adenomas. 01 augustus 2023 |
