My husband has his ct scan on Friday but I have question.
he was treated and cured of head and neck squamous cell oropharynx stage 1. He was a smoker of many years.
Because he was a former smoker ( he quit during treatment ) it’s been hard but he’s doing well. Anyway the dr recommended a one year ct of his chest because of the smoking. They said he didn’t need to have anything else scanned unless we wanted to. His follow-ups every 3 months have been fine. No masses felt in his neck and his entire f/u have been normal. My question is would it be best to have them do a ct of every area or just the chest. I’m getting nervous again. Please say a prayer for him or well wishes. Ty in advance.
