Bone Scan Showing Degenerative Changes And Metastasis. Undergoing Chemotherapy. Can You Explain The Result?
Hi My sister, had a bone scan done and one of the findings is in thoracic Spine are nonspecific at T7-T8 considerations include degenerative change and metastasis .
please keep in mind dec 25 we where told that she has 3b -4th stage cancer it is a mass that ids behind the heart ect the dr said that it is in the major highway of everything and that we don't have much time left with her . but we have been doing chemo but the is getting worse and so that is why they order a new bone scan also we had a bon scan done in jan where there was no sign of anything in the bones. we look up the word metastasis and it is saying that the cancer has spread it that what this means ?
