Hi Roxi,

So sorry to read about your Dad's situation. 
I wish I could answer your questions but I'm just another cancer patient and not a doctor or anything.

Sometimes things are missed when interpreting an MRI, for a variety of reasons, though it is unusual.

Everyone who has been through the stress of a cancer diagnosis will tell you that waiting for results seems endless and is one of the worst parts of the experience. 

When the results of my own first CT scan came through I was referred by my upper GI consultant to an Oncology consultant. In the first appointment with the Oncologist we discussed the outcome of the MDT meeting and then discussed my treatment options. In my case, I started chemo the following week - radio therapy and surgery were unfortunately not options for me and my HER2 test showed I was also unsuitable for Herceptin. 

Good luck
Dave
