i was watching "House" on a cable channel showing last years reruns.. One subject was full body scan.. house calls it a waste of money, garbage. they goes into details about how it shows all the crap.

i recall your growth on your kidney discovered by a body scan.. yours was cancer.. a friend of mine had one discovered by a body scan and had it removed and no cancer.. His doctors recommended against surgery and told him lots of growths form in our bodies but they are not cancerous and do not require removal. I assume most doctors recommend watch vs take action. In my friends situation , it was better to remove the stress of the unknown identified by the body scan.

Fox cable on sunday mornings has a doctor who does q & A. a few weeks ago he also put down full body scans. Said they send a lot of misinformation on growths etc that usually come and go. these are normal to our systems and not cancerous. Usually do not develop into a problem.

Just another few specifics of maintenance vs preventive maintenance.
