What Does This CT Scan Report Indicate?

My husband has had prostate cancer and had radiation 7 years ago....now he has regular cystscopes for bladder cancer..Dr. has found a few tumors and zapped them.. a couple were cancerous but very small..Dr. ordered a CTScan and the results from that showed a spot on his pancreas...Could this be in anyway related to the prostate & Bladder problems he s had ? He is having an MRI tomorrow morning to have it investigated..

Hi

Since your husband is having a spot in his pancreas in CT scan and he is already having history of prostate cancer i would advice you to do a blood test for CA 19-9 along with the MRI as sometimes it can spread to the pancreas.

Warm Regards
DR DE
