So this is all new to me and I am sorry if I'm using the wrong terms.

My mom was just diagnosed w/ breast cancer (on her left) about 2 wks ago, she had an MRI done to the chest area and the doctor has called to say they see something in her R breast & want to get it checked out so she has put in orders for the Right best: ultrasound & biopsy and for the left axillary lymph nodes: biopsy. After this the doctor also told my mom for extra coverage she also wants to get an MRI for her liver. Can someone help me understand why they want an MRI of the liver? Were they able to see something of concern from her recent MRI of the chest or is this just protocol? It's making me worry even more, I don't want my mom to worry about me worrying so I do not want to be asking the doctor these questions in front of her.
