Question

I had papillary thyroid cancer 3 years ago and my thyroid ...


Sent to Health Experts April 15, 2006 12:49 a.m.

I had papillary thyroid cancer 3 years ago and my thyroid removed with a remnant left. I now have 2 nodules on my lung ct. Is a PET scan as effective as an I-131 scan? I've had 2 oppinions on this and am confused. I would prefer the PET scan so I can get it right away and not go off thyroid meds.

Thank You,
Kathy
