Is MIBG Scan Advisable For A Nodule On The Adrenal Gland?

I have a rare tumor between my heart and sternum. My doctor thinks it is a paraganglioma. Thisis very frightening for me. I also have a nodule on my left adrenal gland dr. thought it may be a phenochromomycytoma but blood results and a 24-hour urine came back negative. Looks like the nodule may be nothing to worry about. My dr. ordered a MIBG but now that the lab works was negative, I am wondering if I need the MIBG. Your opinion please.
