Found PNET on tail of pancreas but told it’s nonfunctional

I'm a little confused. If the doctor is having difficulty finding the tumour, how can he say it's a non functional and benign? Put pressure on them to do the necessary test/scan and hope to get your answer soon.

Based on his 42 years of experience and the appearance of the tumor on the Ct scan, (size 0.7mm) symptoms and he claims these tumors do not cause pain. We have had every scan and blood test done and they are just not showing anything to show this is a functional tumor he stated he positive it’s non functional and not cancerous. We will wait and see what the biopsy shows to see if that changes anything but I am not optimistic…
