Re: Who else has a Power Port?
Rich66, not sure, I do feel it depends on the training of the person who is inputting the port. Interventional radiologists - that's who put mine in at Sloan Kettering, didn't ask me. The center that I went to on Tuesday to have it removed, a cardiovascular center - the doctor (interventional radiologist) was surprised that I had a powerport as this one has not been around all that long and not many IR's are educated in placement. My guess is that the stage of one's cancer isn't of concern here.
