I will add that you might consider asking for one on your own dime. In my mom's case, a breast MRI was received only after we had a meeting with rad doc who I asked whether there was a "medical reason" why it wouldn't be done. We made clear it was desired and would be payed for out of pocket if need be. After the meeting, the onc finally agreed to order it and insurance covered it. Me thinks he was shamed into it. I only wish we had pushed harder for other scans.
