Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
yes you can CT ON MY NECK 5C VERTEBRA REPORT SAID AN INFILTRATIVE PROCESS SUCH AS LYMPHOMA AND MYELOMA IS NOT EXCLUDED. METASTASIS IS CONSIDERED LESS LIKELY BUT ALSO CANNOT BE EXCLUDED. WHAT DOEST IT MEAN DO I HAVE A CANSER POSSIBILITY? NEUROSURGEON OPINION AND REQUIREMENT IS OPEN BIOPSI OR NEEDLE BIOPSI OPEN BIOPSI IS BETTER THAN NEEDLE BIOPSI BUT I AM SCEARED FROM SURGICAL BIOPSI IF HAS A RISKS OR AFTER BIOPSI WILL APEAR ANY COMPLICATION WHAT IS YOUR OPINION FOR ME
There is a possibility of a cancer like process, however it can also be an infective or inflammatory cause. Needle biopsy is difficult if the lesion is over a small area and in a difficult part of the spine. Please discuss with your neurosurgeon for the likely procedure to be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vivek Chail, Radiologist
