Makes you wonder how much of the excess treatments and surveillance after treatments are profit motivated, even at the non-profit organizations.

I like the idea of using the NavDx test instead of the PET/CT scan .

I think I will ask for it in the future and see what kind of response I get.
But this blood test is done by an outside private group so there isn't much financial incentive for some cancer centers to use it .
That and private equity has been taking over many hospitals nationwide so
we know how that ends.
I was scheduled for a CT neck scan only 2 mos. out of treatment which I cancelled after getting the neg. NavDx test back. Told the nurse no more radiation !
But there was pressure and reasons I needed the CT scan even though the following month was scheduled for the PET scan which seems to be the normal surveillance protocol.
