Altho' my son had a PET/CT scan before his surgery, there has not been any mention of a PET scan since he completed Rad treatment on 12/19/06. All he had was a chest X-ray on 4/23/07. I don't think it is a UK/USA thing but I've been wondering the same thing. I notice that Robin's stage was T1 and my son's stage is II. Could that be it? All the doctors he's seen since the end of Tx tell him everything is fine.
