Way to go Doc. At least for tongue cancer, other doctors have not come to terms with the fundamental disconnect between the underlaying premise of PETscans (the cancer tumors take in more sugar than normal or healing tissue) and the reality that healing tongue tissue takes in more sugar than cancer tumors.
I surfed the major PETscan manufacturer sites and at least they almost uniformly had this summary.
[quote]Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
PET Scan for Cancer, Alzheimer's, Heart Disease A PET scan allows physicians to measure the body's abnormal molecular cell activity to detect
* Cancer (such as breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, lymphoma, melanoma and other skin cancers),
* Brain Disorders (such as Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, and epilepsy), and
* Heart Disease (such as coronary artery disease).[/quote]
I expect to see more and more studies like the British one I linked to as the facts surface.
Thanks for posting
