Have A Movable Fatty Tumor Above My Naval. Need To Be Investigated With A CT?
I have a noticeable fatty tumor above my naval between my stomach and body skin. This has been noticeable for some time and my doctor has given me this diagnostic. It sometimes moves when I turn to the side. Should I ask my doctor to investigate with a CT?

Fatty tumor can not be diagnosed by CT scan. It canonly be diagnosed by local examination and aspiration biopsy.
