Additional imaging with neck ultrasonography is helpful for selecting minimally invasive parathyroidectomy in most patients with primary hyperparathyroidism who have negative sestamibi scan results. Referral for parathyroidectomy may be considered in patients with negative sestamibi scan results because these results are associated with multigland disease and lower cure rates.
Our findings suggest that rosiglitazone therapy may induce radioiodine uptake and reduce serum thyroglobulin levels in some patients with differentiated thyroid cancer but this did not result in clinically significant response on long-term follow-up. Moreover, no patients had response to rosiglitazone therapy by anatomic imaging studies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
