title: [Contribution of radioimmunologic determination of parathyroid hormone (PTH) to the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism (HPT) (38 cases].
abstract: The P.T.H. radioimmunoassay was done in 38 cases of suspected H.P.T. In confirmed primary H.P.T., the dosage was in positive correlation in 75% of cases; the classic metabolic exploration was in good correlation in 81% of cases. The specificity of the dosage is good but the defect of correlation comes from the antiserum utilised which recognizes the NH2-terminal region of human P.T.H.
