Doctor orders a noninvasive test, I take it. From that perspective, I understand it. But the man just doesn’t care to know … anything. His brain is just a steady stream of fake tits and tumbleweeds.

I would also remember why they ordered the scan, because I do care about that aspect of it. I’m not a doctor, but I do know there’s a difference between cancer and a slipped disc.

There's no such thing as a non-invasive test.

Even if there were zero risks for the actual procedure, and they're just doing it for the fuck of it, what happens if they find a little abnormality? Now you need a biopsy, more scans, and possibly treatment for something that doesn't show any symptoms and never would have.

Words have meanings: non-invasive test

Follow-up tests may be invasive. That’s not relevant to the definition of “non-invasive test”.

Being scared of the possibility of finding something also is not relevant to the definition.
