My dad started chemo and radiation (small cell lung cancer) at the same time this week.  He has this for 4 wees.

Does anyone know if they scan at the end of the treatment to see how things have worked - or is it a few weeks later?

Thanks, Nance x

  • My post chemo PET scan was done 6 weeks after I finished chemo.  My post rads CT was done a few weeks after I finished radiotherapy and repeated two months later.

    Some people are scanned during their chemotherapy and others aren't.  The best people to ask about when you'll have an idea of how well your dad's treatment is working are his treatment team.
