This figure demonstrates the importance of SPECT / CT for determining the relationship of the parathyroid adenomas with the adjacent structures. (a) Patient with previous thyroidectomy, a focus of uptake is seen in the right cervical area (white arrow). (b) SPECT / CT images localize this focus (red arrow) to the right paratracheal region. At surgery, this was determined to be a true right inferior parathyroid adenoma.
