My brother came down with stage four colorectal cancer about a year ago. With an oncologist that treated him with real aggressive chemo, he is currently cancer free, although he is told that he will always have cancer, just that its inactive right now. He was given that pronoses on my birthday this past February, although he is still going through four additional rounds of chemo. Tomorrow begins his third of those four, and then if all goes correctly, I assume that he goes into maintenance. I don't know what a petscan is per say, except that my brother has been through four of them over the past year, and they gage the size of tumors, I understand. The first petscan told the how big the tumor was, and I don't know what else. The second petscan showed that with chemo treatment that his mass had decreased in size by 56%. The third petscan showed a reduction by 73% overall, and the fourth one showed no growth existing. He is due to go through a fifth petscan after this additional treatment ends.
Dick, keep them fingers crossed. Cancer treatment although not perfect and far from it, has improved over the years. Keep them fingers crossed, and so will I.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
