Hi there. I had an option to do MRI and mammo every year together or alternate mammo and MRI every 6 months which is what I have chosen to do. Had first testing 2 months after rads, almost 9 months after surgery. I thought diagnostic was suspected problems and comprehensive was for history of BC. Syntax may not matter, as long as you are on a digital machine. I have found a real difference in the providers of mammos here. The original place I went to felt kind of 3rd world. The new place is like heaven or a spa. I really expected all providers to be as bad as the original. Good luck, BB
