Default Flora Dopa Pet Scan
I had a F-Dopa Pet Scan done at Long Island Jewish Hospital -Northshore.
Read by David Eidelberg.

The findings were "NORMAL."

I have since read that due to brain compensation, early in the diagnosis (mine was) a Normal reading can be deemed false.

Does anyone have any knowledge on this?

It was a very expensive test not covered by insurance and now I don't believe I can rely on the results.

Any help would be appreciated.
