How Can Squamous Cell Carcinoma Be Treated?
HI, My mom was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma. It s been metastasized in lungs and liver but we can not find the place where it s spreading from. She currently resides in Russia but I have all her info and analyses here in NYC. Is it possible to consult an oncologist with all the biopsy, MRI s, etc. that I have from her? Thanks in advance.

Hi
Since squamous cell carcinoma has been detected which has spread to liver and lungs I would suggest you do a whole body pet scan and a biopsy from any space occupying lesion to find the primary source of cancer and then only treatment can be decided.
