First Post Chemo/Radiation MRI Results
11/20/2003

I spoke with Lori's Dr. at 5:00 PM today. He was unable to meet with us because he's on his way out of town, but he indicated Lori's scan looks better than the last. The enhancement looks smaller than on the last scan (pre-gamma knife). He was referring to an enhancement or "white" sliver around the former tumor site. There appeared to be a piece of residual tumor left after surgery, however it's existance as a part of the tumor is debatable. Based on the first post surgical scan Lori's oncologist and surgeon said there appeared to be a piece of residual tumor left behind, her radiologist said it looked like postsurgical scarring. Whatever it is/was it's smaller which for Lori is progress in the right direction.
Thank you God.
