Bingo, Lisa, you've asked the same questions I've been wondering about. I haven't talked to my onc about it but based on the fact that my annual CT of the chest-abdomen-pelvis in February missed the lymph over my collarbone, whereas the PET last month didn't, I'm going to discuss switching to full-body PET and brain MRI from now on.
I intend to be here for many more years, so the cumulative effect of the radiation IS an issue!
Love, Lolly
