Study Summary

This study describes a single center, randomized, single-blinded clinical trial to assess the clinical benefits of the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during total thyroidectomy (TTx). It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in TTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.

Primary Outcome

Average number of parathyroid glands identified (Experimental Group: Glands identified with naked eye + NIRAF; Control Group: Glands identified with naked eye) per patient
