I live in Kansas City, had my surgery in March 2014 at age 58, and SRT in March 2016 after the SRT failed I went to Mayo for the C11 Choline scan and consult with Dr. Kwon at Rochester in January 2017.
The scan found four pelvic lymph nodes involved but no organs or bones.
We agreed to do six cycles of taxotere, 18-24 months of Lupron and 25 more radiation treatments.
I did all my treatments back in KC, returning to Mayo every 3-4 months for a C11 Choline scan and urology consult.
I had full confidence in my radiologist here in KC, latest equipment, top notch radiology team and a willingness to work with me and Mayo on the treatment plan. She built a 3D model, consulted with Mayo on the treatment fields, boosts to the four sites, treatment margins and total dosage.
That may be an option for you, a local radiologist working in concert with Mayo to develop and execute a treatment plan.
Thank you for this info!
