Default How often do u get CT scan of thymus and which dr orders the test?

After following the other thread ab thymus removal I am curious:

For those of u who had imaging done and thymus appeared unremarkable, how often are u going back for a repeat scan??

Second of all, my pulm ordered mine. Who is technically the thymus expert from a MD perspective? The thoracic surgeon? The neuro? Do all MGers see a thoracic spec?

The last one was ab 2 years ago. I try to be judicious ab radiation but maybe it's time for a look?

Love ur thoughts. Thanks.
