Pet Scan
I was just reading in another group and didn’t want to high jack her post by asking this question...cat scan and bone scan was clear but pet scan picked up cancer tumour on ribs and neck...why didn’t ...

Hi @Nadi
I am no expert on scans, simply trying to provide some some basic information on the terminology! Well done 👍 on 5 years.
But I’ll hit eight years at the end of this month and I am having my 3D mammogram on Friday. I’d have it irrespective - and the only reason I don’t have ultrasound too is that my breast surgeon is absolutely confident that’s unnecessary - breasts get less dense as you age and mine is apparently practically translucent! I want someone looking for something in particular. Just in case. It’s a personal choice of course. For me the cost is money well spent. Best wishes.
