Thanks for that tip! Had no idea you could get IV hydration to lessen the effects of the contrast. The PEM mammo sounds interesting also I wonder if that uses any radioactive components? I do know that MRI is really the only imaging in use today that shows ILC with any relability at all. Regular mammo, even 3d, and US are pretty useless for ILC. I really wish breast doctors would explain BEFORE we all get diagnosed.... I was told for years that 3d mammo + US would catch anything early. Not true.
