Hello, Recently I had an MRI last week to see if I had a benign tumor, testing for acromegaly. Thankfully, there was no evidence of a tumor. I did have another IGF-1 test Friday. I believe my Endocrinologist is setting up a grid. What would the next step be, and how and when would we know if a CT scan is needed. Thank you.
