CT/PET thorax findings
Mediastinal structures are unremarkable. No evidence of adenopathy or mass. Lung parenchyma and pleural spaces are normal. Bone structures are normal. NOTHING NOTED ABOUT THE NODUAL FROM THE PREVIOUS CT SCAN SO MAYBE IT IS GONE.
The liver and biliary tree are unremarkable. I GUESS THIS MEANS MY LIVER IS OK AS WELL.
CT/PET pelvis findings

CT/PET pelvis findings
Subtle focus of activity in the right pelvic region appears to be social with oval structure measuring up to 2.9cm in greatest size best seen at slice position -603.76. I suspect this more likely represents old variant uptake in the ovary rather than representing metastatic abnormality. SUV maximum 3.2. Altrasound would confirm.
I assume this means there is something aroung my right ovary that I will probably be getting an altrasound of. I guess this is not a bad report. I do wish I could get a clear one though and I can say I am NED. I see the doctor Thrusday of course to discus results. I also have an appt Friday with Melanoma specialist in GR for a 2nd opinion of all my scans.

These repors can be frustrating at times when attempting to "decipher" their meaning. I just had a similiar one with a "spot" on the liver which an additional MRI proved to be a benign hemangioma. I guess when you're a melanoma patient you can't be too careful. I'm going optimistic with your report and its just one of those thikngs that come up. I know the anxiety is crushing but I'm praying for NED for you and that you're anxiety is relieved. All the best!!!
