my husband had a scan Friday and his doctor is out of the country for a couple of weeks. He doesn’t have an appointment with him until March 20. The results showed up on the portal and I was looking for some help interpreting them. Hope you can read the images

it seems he has metastases in C2, right pulmonary hilum, a left para-aortic node and it may be other met in L2.

What were the conclusions of the radiologist?

would that be under study results? Sorry, only second scan I’ve seen. I think that must be it. It looks like exactly what you said. Thank you for your reply.

Hello Drandma, Get another doctor or his/her assistant in your Husband's health facility to interpret his "scan". BTW where is your dear Husband being treated? And what is his age? (info voluntary). Keep posting here.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

My husband sees Dr. Oliver Sartor at Tulane (who is moving to Mayo in Minnesota). We had a radiologist tell us what is going on. The hilar lymph node lit up last time. It now appears to be an addiction lymph node in his abdomen as well as 2 spots on the spine. Anxious to meet with the doctor on March 20 to find out what the treatment will be now that it is in his bones. My husband just turned 63. Diagnosed at age 59 in 2019
