Overview
- Imaging modalities may be helpful in preoperative localization of hyper-functioning parathyroid glands. These imaging modalities include Tc-99m sestamibi scintigraphy, single positron emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry is helpful in detecting low bone mineral density caused by hyperparathyroidism.

- [Imaging modality] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an [imaging modality] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include:
- [finding 1]
- [finding 2]
- [finding 3]
