Don't be concerned, but don't panic if the PETscan indicates a problem since Emmett's remaining tongue tissue has been thru radiation which routinely generates false positives. IMO, post radiation PETscans on tongue cancer rank right up there with PSA tests as something that looks good in theory but is found lacking in practice. Still, when the results show no abnormal update of the radioactive sugar, that is very comforting. It's only when the healing tissue is having a big uptake that the results of a PETscan are skewed so zero abnormal uptake is a very good result and one that I wish and hope is your result this Monday
