It's to my understanding that PET scans are more reliable than CT scans. Best of luck, Deandra
Hello...I generally have both PET and CT at the same time, as my Oncol. thinks by having both, it gives a good 'over-all' picture of the situation, although my Stage 4 cancer was first dx by Ct scan. I guess it's an individual thing for the Oncol. I had a swollen lymph node in the left pelvic area, which was found to be cancerous after I had a fine needle biopsy. The chemo seems to be working on it well, as I can hardly detect it now. I hope everything works out well for you. hugs...Helen...
Thanks so much for the help. This is just a big head game....
