Thought i should share: im a Mayo patient. I have gold crowns from well overv30 years ago. These do not affect scans, per the radiologists there. Also, I had a partial nephrectomy last Oct to remove 2 tumors from my left kidney. I also have a 3+ cm on my right kidney. Cancer is gone, but they're "watching" them. Additionally i had a tumor removed from the bifurcation of my carotid artery last month. Since last yr when all this was discovered, I can't begin to say how many CTs & MRIs I've had. Going back for surgery followup end of next month. Have MRIs scheduled for head & neck and CTs scheduled for chest, abdomen and pelvis.

@gangcarotid1 Thanks and sorry for long delay in reply. That's encouraging to learn about the gold crowns. I have three in back of my mouth from late 80s early 90s. But I also have a few the same age that are porcelain bound to steel of some kind. Did you actually have an MRI or were you just relaying what the radiologist said?

3+cm is a cyst on my right kidney, not a tumor.
