a few people will need to look at the scan images specially if theres a lump of some kind to determine the best course of a action when my son had scans the person doing the scan would do a report which is then passed onto a specialist /doctor so they can read threw and check try not to worry i know its difficult

the first time he was diagnosed it took 6 weeks for results to come back and then it was they had found a mass which then had to be biopsied they sent the biopsy over to germany and had to wait the results of that all in all 3 months from walking into hospital to being diagnosed and starting treatment

it can take longer if for example the person who needs to overlook the scans is away so dont be worried about the length of time its taking

wat i used to do was try push it to the back of my mind until i knew for sure wat it was and wat the results were that is all you can do its a worrying time and i cant say anything to put your mind at ease because like i did i worried no matter wat people said but until u know for sure the result try keep occupied the length of time has nothing to do with the outcome of the scan result
