Many of us, me included, had at least one false positive from post Tx scans so my point is don't go over board if his is not all clear. My first 2 post Tx scans had words like "this area can not be excluded" as each one showed some tiny spots in my lungs that weren't there pre Tx. The first one showed a spot and by the second scan it has resolved itself but there was a new spot and by my 3rd scan finally all were clear.
Good luck
David
