Lymph node visibility in imaging
Hello,
I've been reading these forums for a few weeks and finding them very helpful - thank you to all that share their knowledge.
I'm trying to understand more about lymph nodes and imaging.

cranky_granny Thank you for describing the path you went along. It's a bit of a mind spin when there are so many different approaches trying to get to the same point of kicking the little buggers out!
I haven't seen anyone yet to talk about how much radiation or what type of hormone therapy will be suitable for me. I get the impression that won't happen until after axillary dissection surgery to determine my stage.
The medical oncologist is usually the one that prescribes the ongoing treatment. I went public for all my treatment the treating team discussed and worked out what path my treatment would take. As I had chemotherapy to start I saw the her first. I was told i would go onto some form of hormone therapy once i finished active treatment at the time it depended on the surgery biopsies.
