(A) Pre‐RFA ultrasound examination. Thyroid nodules (T1 and T2) and parathyroid adenoma (P) were marked. (B) Post‐RFA ultrasound showed hyperechoic feature. (C) VRR during the follow‐up period. The post‐RFA VRR of parathyroid adenoma at 12 months was 94.1%, and that of T1/T2 thyroid nodules was 62.7%/73.7%, respectively. (D) PTH level. The baseline level was 174.5 pg/mL. The post‐RFA PTH level at 9 months was 67.2 pg/mL. PTH, parathyroid hormone; RFA, radiofrequency ablation; VRR, volume reduction ratio.
