Hi

I’ve got stage 4 lung cancer with mets to other lung. I’ve had an mri brain scan and the consultant has just rung to say she’s ordered another one as there are some small changes they are not sure of. Don’t know what to think !! What does a second mri usually reveal? 

  • Hi tuneful welcome to the forum. Im imagining that a second MRI will be more targeted to the area that is of query. This could be anything and potentially could be totally unrelated to what is happening for you right now. Hang in there.
