“…Recent studies have indicated that 18 F-Fluorocholine PET/CT had a better diagnostic accuracy than 99m Tc-MIBI SPECT/CT for localization of parathyroid adenoma (21)(22)(23), especially in the detection of small parathyroid adenomas. However, few cases of 18 F-fluorocholine PET/CT in parathyroid carcinoma have been reported until now (24,25). Therefore, the value of 18 F-fluorocholine PET/CT for differentiating parathyroid carcinoma from adenoma is still uncertain, and needs to be further explored in a larger cohort of patients with PHPT.…”

“…Another diagnostic option which may be useful in the localization of distant metastases is 18 F-FDG PET scanning [18,23,24]. Using this technique, several imaging signs have been proposed to raise the suspicion of PC [11,12,16,18,23,25].…”

“…Anecdotally, there are single scans reported as falsely negative in recurrent parathyroid carcinoma but a systematic study is warranted to clarify if these scans show any added benefit compared to other studies discussed above. 18 F-choline PET/CT, which is an indicator of lipid synthesis, has shown promise in detecting benign parathyroid adenomas but its utility in localizing initial or recurrent parathyroid carcinoma is unknown; only case reports have shown some promise thus far (Deandreis et al 2015, Morand et al 2018.…”
