In our case the PET scan was done twice, once after 6 month check during chemo, and before surgery, 6 months later before surgery. I’m concerned from your doctor’s comment that they didn’t think it was needed. In our case it is the main test to see where exactly the NET is before our decision points on which direction to take. Do you have a multi- disciplinary team including a NET specialist? But every case is different, we are not doctors, but just offering our experience in our cases with NET. 🙏

The gastroenterologists referred me to her after two failed biopsies.
