Filter by:This study proposes the use of a well-established PET isotope, Fluorine-18 (18F), bound to Choline, for a prospective single-center, single-arm study for participants with suspected parathyroid adenoma and negative or equivocal standard of care 99mTc Sestamibi SPECT/CT
The goal of this study is to assess whether using PTeye (AiBiomed, Santa Barbara, CA) - a NIRAF detection modality - can improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare associated costs after parathyroid surgeries. By being able to quickly and definitively locate parathyroid glands while in the operating room, the duration of surgical procedure could be further reduced. In addition, the number of frozen section biopsy and associated costs can be minimized. Furthermore, repeat surgeries as a result of missing a diseased parathyroid gland at the time of the initial parathyroidectomy for hyperparathyroidism could potentially be avoided.
This study will see if the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy (PTx) procedures is better than a surgeon's detection alone. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in PTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
The aim of this study was evaluated the feasibility of bilateral intermediate cervical plexus blockade to be anesthesia for simple thyroid/parathyroid surgery.
We assessed sensitivity of 18F-FCH PET/CT in preoperative localisation of hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).
The radio-guided technique offers both help with in-vivo identification and ex-vivo confirmation of parathyroid adenoma. In-vivo accuracy is most important but its results are not satisfactory. The aim of this study was to evaluate if there is a beneficial effect of individualized timing of surgery using preoperative multi-phase 99mTc-MIBI single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT on in-vivo characteristics of minimally invasive radio-guided parathyroidectomy.
This study describes a single center, randomized, single-blinded clinical trial to assess the clinical benefits of the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy (PTx) procedures. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in PTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
The question proposed by this study, is one of patient outcomes. Does intraoperative injection of Exparel decrease postoperative use of opioid pain medications in patients undergoing thyroid and parathyroid surgery? The trial seeks to assess the effect that Exparel has on postoperative pain control.
The investigators hypothesize that positron emission tomography with fluorocholline (F18-choline PET) will reduce the proportion of unnecessary invasive surgery decisions and that the higher cost of positron emission tomography versus MIBI scintigraphy (Tc99m-sestaMIBI ) will be offset by lower cost in terms of type. surgery performed wisely and complications.
Identification and localization of pathological parathyroid gland before parathyroidectomy is traditionally done by a combination of two methods: ultrasound and sestamibi scan. The investigators would like to show that one exam that includes ultrasound and fine needle aspiration of the parathyroid gland for parathyroid hormone level is as accurate as the traditional method.
