Does everyone get face to face follow up after MRI?

Hi everyone

I'm currently under 2 week referral.  I have a lump in my throat on one side around where tonsils should be (I have no tonsils). GP referred me ENT wasn't sure either and kept me on 2 week pathway and sent me for an MRI. That was a week ago.

Does anyone know if you have an MRI does everyone get a face to face follow up with results or just a letter? He said in my appointment if it is cancerous I would see him again if not would probably just get report through post? A bit odd i thought?

Thanks

    Hi T,

    I'm not sure if everyone gets a face to face follow up. I had a MRI last year and got the results via letter. This year I had another MRI in April and this time I had a face to face because of an increase in the size from 5mm to 7mm. So now different tests to find out if it is or isn't Cancer.
