Good news today!

Last fall, the MRI showed an area of lucency at my old surgery site (T3 on my spine) that the radiologist considered "concerning." Two oncologists told me separately that it was improbable that it was cancer, because my PSA remains undectectable (< 0.01), ALP is in normal range, and CT and bone scans both suggested benign post-surgical bone remodeling, but it was still nagging at me a little, of course.

I had a follow up MRI last Friday, and they added the cage camera around my head to try to look down a little, around the rods and cement in my spinal fusion.

The result just popped in MyChart:

❝No interval change compared to prior study from September 2025. The suspected area of enhancement in the T3 vertebral body visualized on prior examination is most likely artifactual. No definite masslike enhancement to suggest recurrent disease.❞
