Both NIFI cameras were excellent at detecting PG. Second-generation NIFI (CMOS) displayed higher detection rates and AF intensity. Although surgeons identified majority of PG before NIFI detection, 25% of PG were identified with NIFI first, suggesting future advancements of this technology may expand its applications during parathyroid/thyroid operations.
