In my case, the scan results were given over to the oncologist who then developed an appropriate treatment plan specifically for my case. I received 28 radiation and 6 chemo treatments. During the later stages of treatments I chose a surgeon. 6 weeks after my last radiation treatment I had my first surgery.

I see, my scan isn’t until next week at which time the Thoracic surgeon will view the pathology report as well as the CT scan. My guess is he’ll decide if he does surgery first or chemo/radiation.
