Summary

This study aims to determine whether HIFU treatment is a safe and effective alternative to an operation to remove all or part of the affected gland. The objective is to achieve biochemical cure (assessed by normal calcium level in the blood at six weeks, six months and one year after therapy) without affecting the patient's voice or ability to swallow.
