Some points from my #ASNR20 parathyroid 4D CT talk broadcast now and soon available on-demand:

• primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) - intrinsic parathyroid gland abnormality resulting in excessive PTH secretion

• PHPT diagnosed with blood tests (specifically Ca and PTH) • Most often (85-90%) caused by single adenoma (1 gland problem); less often by abnormality of more than 1 gland

• Cure - surgical removal of abnormal parathyroid tissue (whether 1 gland or more than 1 gland)

• Image to LOCALIZE; inform surgeon's choice of operation

My best attempt to summarize key points from the truly outstanding #ASNR19 YPS Transition to Early Career session for @walterfwiggins and any others unable to attend: Talk 1 – Getting Ahead in Your Practice from Early On – Dr. Mark Mamlouk (@MarkMamloukMD)

Challenges faced and strategies to succeed:

Self – be confident but embrace humility; find good mentors; be willing to take chances (and to take them again after failure)
