Merry, just saw this post, I’m not good at finding my way around on my iPad. Question is I’m not sure if they call mine mult focal but will get those answers in November. Mine is called indolent but growing faster than what used to be BAC and ground glass has been used and also lipidic is in reports. My biopsy in 2019 did say adenocarcinoma and not much more and so I hope what I have can be cleared up and that will ease my mind just getting clearer answers. I have read that with earlier scans that they are seeing more multifocal cases so am hoping that they will be doing more research on how to help. I answered in another section before I saw this so will check this site out more closely as to where responses are. Beautiful fall here in Michigan as should be in Boston, enjoy. Sallie

@catlover1943- Lipidic means "Any of a group of organic compounds, including the fats, oils, waxes, sterols, and triglycerides, that are insoluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents, are oily to the touch, and together with carbohydrates and proteins constitute the principal structural material of living cells."

I've had 2 SBRT's. They won't do it if it's too dangerous to another organ. Do you know what type of SBRT you had? Proton, Photon? No, biopsies aren't usually done.

Here is some information about SBRT for you.

Have you done any research yourself about what your treatments are all about?
