- Abstract
This article discusses a symposium on parathyroid fluorescence that aimed to address challenges and solutions related to identifying parathyroid glands during surgery. Accurate identification is important to prevent complications such as hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia. The article explores alternative techniques such as near-infrared autofluorescence imaging and indocyanine green angiography for localization. It also mentions the challenge of identifying parathyroid adenomas and the potential role of NIRAF imaging in improving cure rates. The article concludes that while more research is needed, NIRAF imaging systems have the potential to enhance surgical decision-making.
