Steve,
If size matters, yours is really small!  ;D
I want to scan my film from Monday that I am carrying to the neurosurgeon tomorrow morning, but I'm afraid I'll bleach it out or something and ruin it so he won't be able to do the job.  I have the CD from October.  Maybe I can get a screen shot?
Mine is bigger than yours.  Na-na-na-na-na-Na!
Am I getting giddy a week pre-op?
Becky,
Mine is smooshed all over the place since it grew, so it's taken the shape of the space available.  Also, some films are without contrast, and the tumor does not glow in those.  Honestly, just walk in there and demand your report.  Tell 'em I said so!

Did Nancy really just say that?  :o  This can't be the Nancy we met here on the forum weeks and weeks ago, can it?  ;)

Wow!  That's the fastest I've ever been caught!  2 minutes!
 
Ok, back on track.
 
Becky, so you mean to say that when you look at your films, you CAN see a mass like what's in Steve's image?  It wouldn't appear on all the images, because you are moving front to back/back to front in the images.  If it were in all of them, you'd have a tumor the size of your head :).
 
I'm still hoping you don't have a tumor, but by your description, it's starting to sound like you do  :(
