Abstract

OBJECTIVE: It is important to detect parathyroid adenomas by parathyroid scintigraphy with 99m-technetium sestamibi (Tc-MIBI) before surgery. This study aimed to develop and validate deep learning (DL)-based models to detect parathyroid adenoma in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism, from parathyroid scintigrams with Tc-MIBI.
