Metastatic calcification was the result of metabolic abnormalities due primary hyperparathyroidism. The pulmonary clearance rate of inhaled Tc-99m DTPA showed significant acceleration in both lungs. The patient underwent parathyroidectomy for right superior parathyroid adenoma. Follow-up bone scan and Tc-99m DTPA aerosol clearance studies conducted one year after surgery did not reveal any abnormality.}, pages = {144--147}, title = {Accelerated Pulmonary Clearance of Aerosolized Tc-99m-Diethylenetriamine Pentaacetic Acid (DTPA) in a Patient with Primary Hyperparathyroidism}, volume = {3}, year = {2004} }
