Interesting, @kmakm .... have you ever asked for one, to be told 'No' - or you haven't chased it up as your BS isn't a fan?
My query is - if you don't have one at 'some stage' - how do they know what they are comparing the next one to?
We are given mammograms every 2 years 'just in case' and there is already some level of exposure to 'radiation' there .... We all have the odd dental X-ray 'in case' we have dental caries ..... so it makes sense to me to have a body scan at least once since diagnosis.
THEN - you only have others if you suspect something else is seriously wrong.
