I cannot imagine a surgeon went in to perform a whipple and did not know the extent of artery involvement. Are you at a pancreatic center of excellence?? So sorry he went through that.
A contrast CT found my tumor. Then, I had one MRI, one PET scan, and also a colonoscopy. I was told the PET scan is only of value in certain situations and I still don't know the criteria they use. Now I only get contrast CTs. I've also wondered why it was a "one and done" test myself! Maybe someone can shed some light on the issue.
