A new tool for diagnosing parathyroid lesions: angio plus ultrasound imaging

Abstract

The typical polar vessel and increased vascularity commonly associated with parathyroid lesions may be obtained with angio plus ultrasound imaging. Angio plus ultrasound imaging can improve the detection rate and distribution characteristics of blood flow signals of parathyroid lesions. Further research is needed to clarify the clinical meaning of increased blood flow information, such as the differentiation of parathyroid lesions from other lesions.
