[quote=Anonymous]I had this discussion recently with my OB/GYN. The answer is no, this is not a evidence-based approach to screening for cancer. Doctors order it because patients ask. It’s probably not harmful either, there aren’t too many incidental findings that are gonna be picked up using this imaging so the worst case scenario is so ovarian cyst shows up or some thing and they do a repeat screening in six months to make sure it goes away. So kind of no harm, no foul.[/quote]
