Re: the REALLY REALLY good news and the bad news (her2 stats outside clinical trials)

Thanks Lani and this looks like good news but for those of us 6-8 years out who had Herceptin for early stage I feel maybe a standard brain scan at intervals would be the way to go?? I do intend asking my Onc for one when I next see her and thank you for the info!
