Don't know: What "this" is. But i would follow the recommendation of the pediatrician, since he sees kids all day, every day. He is the expert on children.

Conflicting info one doc says small cell lung cancer cannot be ruled out by unremarkable chest ct scan. Another doc says it can as sclc is exceptionally unlikely with nothing significant on ct. Any radiologists here have any views. Thank you.
