hey im jst wondering how long about do u get the results back frm ct scans and mri my grandad is due to have his this week to find out if his mouth cancer has spread so jst wondered do u get results straight away or is there another wait for these? thanks

  • Hi cfcfan30, 

    Your grandad's medical team will be in the best position to answer your question so if you grandad gives you his permission your can get in touch with them to ask. Our cancer nurses are just a phone call away as well if you'd like to chat to them about this as well. Their freephone number is 0808 800 4040 and are available Monday - Friday between 9a.m -5p.m.

    I hope this helps cfcfan30 and that the results show that the cancer hasn't spread.

    Best wishes to you both,
