- The mass is monitored for growth using repeated CT scans every three to six months for 3½ years. This exposes the patient to radiation and carries a high potential for false positive results, which may subsequently lead to unnecessary biopsies and procedures.
- The mass is monitored using Positron-Emission Tomography (PET) scans over a similar period of 3½ years. This method has numerous limitations, however, depending on the size, inflammation levels, and metabolic activity of the tumor.
