PET Scan
Good Morning Everyone,
After reading many posts I see that a PET scan isn't standard procedure. I always thought everyone had a PET scan (or some type of scan) before treatment began to see if cancer had spread.
I'd like to ask how many of you had a PET or some other type of scan to determine if cancer had spread before beginning treatment? I did. I had a PET scan (no mets found) and an MRI of both breasts (cancer in right) to see if possible cancer in left breast and if more in right breast. The answer was "no" to those questions.
Have a wonderful day all.
Mary Jo
