Brain Tumor Review Board
The radiation oncologist called to let us know that the Brain Tumor Review Board had met and reviewed E.'s case. And we have no more information than we did yesterday! The Board felt like the area around the cavity in the back of E.'s brain showed more enhancement than the area around the front cavity. They agreed that there was some "fuzziness," but nothing definitive. There was some additional confusion because it was felt like the MRI's were not taken from the same angle. It is very difficult to always get the exact same angle in each and every MRI and therefore when looking at the different "cuts," you're not always looking at the same thing. In any event, the Board agreed that the next step should be another MRI, which is already scheduled for the 16th.
