It's standard procedure in my onc's office.
Before beginning treatment, I had a PET scan as well as a CT of the chest, abdomen and pelvis. This is how we discovered that, instead of being stage II as we thought, I was stage IV.
Seems to me that it only makes sense to do these scans so that the staging is correct. That's why my onc always does them, no matter if they think from the start you are stage I or stage IV.
