A member asked:
Enlrged spleen@13.7cm, is dr right to order a u/s 6 months later, or should it be sooner. he says nhs funding is tight.

Testing in Medicine : He is right. I can think of no medical reason to do it any sooner unless some other problem arises. Patients often want things sooner or more frequently then is medically necessary.
