Ok, So I had my FNA yesterday an dit really wasn't that bad. Whe the nurse did the ultrasound she said it would be up to the radiologist if he would even do the biopsy because it almost didn't look big enough. The radiologist decided he would go ahead and do it, the nurse had said something about in the transverse it was really small, any thoughts on that? Also I asked the radiologist doing it what they usuallyu extract, and he said typically alot of blood. Is that normal for blood to be coming out of the nodule, or does that definelty mean cancer?
What is the third number when the nodule is measured like this # x # x# , is the last one diameter?
This is a good sign; the dimensions are length by width
Great, so that is a good sign? So are measurements on a nodule l x w x d?
It looks like both nodules are stable [the size variation can be due to the different ultrasound machine [low resolution vs high resolution] but most likely the left nodule may have responded to hormone treatment.
Actually, I meant the measurements of the nodule, is it still the same L X W X D ?
Also on another note, I found an ultrasound report from Oct. 2005,
The right nodule was 7 mm x 12 mm
conversion to cm would be .70 cm x 1.2 cm correct? And now it is .47cm x 1.34 cm, so that isn't too much growth correct?
The left nodule was 6mm x 10 mm and now is .54 cm x .62 cm, that isn't too much growth is it for three years?
