The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) for preoperative parathyroid tumor (PT) localization in primary hyperparathyroid (PHP) patients.
A retrospective review was carried out of the medical records of all PHP patients who underwent ultrasound (US), Tc-99m sestamibi noncontrast single photon emission computed tomography (CT-MIBI), DECT and parathyroidectomy at a single center.
The sensitivities and accuracies for preoperative PT localization in the 97 patient study population were: US 40% and 93%, CT-MIBI 64.0% and 97%, and DECT 84% and 96%, respectively. In the one third of the study population that did not localize preoperatively with CT-MIBI and US, DECT correctly localized a PT in 21 cases (66%). DE-CT and US correctly localized a PT in 86% of cases, and only 5 (8%) of the cases that were accurately localized by a combination of CT-MIBI and US were not identified by DE-CT.
DECT should be utilized as a first line preoperative PT localization study in PHP patients, and is also a sensitive salvage localization test.
本研究旨在评估双能 CT(DECT)在原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症(PHP)患者甲状旁腺瘤(PT)术前定位中的性能。
对在一家中心接受超声(US)、Tc-99m sestamibi 非对比单光子发射 CT(CT-MIBI)、DECT 和甲状旁腺切除术的所有 PHP 患者的病历进行了回顾性分析。
97 例患者研究人群的术前 PT 定位的敏感度和准确率分别为:US 为 40%和 93%,CT-MIBI 为 64.0%和 97%,DECT 为 84%和 96%。在三分之一未通过 CT-MIBI 和 US 进行术前定位的患者中,DECT 正确定位了 21 例(66%)PT。DE-CT 和 US 正确定位了 86%的病例,而仅 5 例(8%)通过 CT-MIBI 和 US 准确定位的病例未被 DE-CT 识别。
DECT 应作为 PHP 患者术前 PT 定位的首选研究方法,也是一种敏感的挽救性定位试验。
