Discussion
Chest
There is a discrete focus of radiopharmaceutical localization in the region of the
right atrium. It has an appearance characteristic of right auricular appendage, a
common and normal fi nding seen on the raw projection data (a, b, c, f). Note its
superior and deep location. It is enhanced by altering the color presentation (compare b to c and to f). The processed SPECT images (d, g) and the gated SPECT
images (e, h) confi rm its location and provide the key clue to its etiology and, thus,
its clinical signifi cance as a normal fi nding. It should not be misconstrued as a
pathologic mediastinal mass. The small, mild, fi xed apical defect is normal apical
thinning. Incidental note of “septal rocking” (e) of unclear etiology (no history or
left bundle branch block (LBBB) nor cardiac surgery).
The thyroid gland and injection sites (arms up) are not included in the
fi eld-of-view.
Abdomen
There is no abnormality.

27.2.1 Problem
Clinical Highlights
A 56-year-old female was found to have elevated calcium and parathormone (PTH)
levels. Parathyroid SPECT scintigraphy is performed to identify and localize the culprit
hyperfunctioning parathyroid gland as the cause of primary hyperparathyroidism.

Discussion
Chest
On the images of the chest, the visualized salivary glands and thyroid gland are
normal (a, d). There is subtle but defi nite focal radiopharmaceutical localization
deep in the midline chest superior to the heart (a, d). The SPECT and SPECT/CT
images (the latter created with fusion software) localize the focus to the middle
mediastinum situated between the anterolateral aspect of the trachea and the great
vessels (b, c, e, f). The fi nal diagnosis is ectopic parathyroid adenoma deep in the
mediastinum as cause of primary hyperparathyroidism.
Why is this case presented in a book on SPECT MPI? Because this condition can
be discovered on SPECT MPI, and one should be aware of its presentation. As in
this case, fusion can be performed with software if there is a previous chest CT or
MRI. Also, in contradistinction to 27.1, this lesion is not related to the right atrium
and should not be misinterpreted as a normal fi nding.
Note that the relatively photopenic (“cold”) normal breast tissue does not compromise the examination.
Abdomen
The liver is seen because imaging commenced shortly after radiopharmaceutical
administration according to the parathyroid imaging protocol, and the
99m
Tc sesta-
mibi has not yet cleared through the normal physiologic mechanism (a, d).
