I just had a PET/CT on August 20th. Wouldn't these spots (largest being 4mm, and most about 2mm) be too small to show up on a PET? I don't want to expose myself to that kind of radiation when the spots are too small to show up on the test. Is there any other way to tell if they are cancer besides a PET, and when they are so small?
