    Wallycat - Thanks very much for posting this, it is really interesting, not that I want to start having to have routine brain MRI's. The sample was small though, so as they pointed out, larger studies would need to be done before any real conclusions could be drawn, but it is a notable initial finding worth further exploration.

    This sounds like me. Asymptotic brain mets. I wouldn’t have known if it weren’t for my oncologist ordering a brain MRI when I was first diagnosed stage 4. It was almost an afterthought.
