Guest guest Posted April 4, 2001 Report Share Posted April 4, 2001 Ultrasound can sometimes locate residual scar tissue if it has silicone inside but I usually rely on physical exam and the previous op note. Kolb M.D. ----- Original Message ----- From: Patty Sent: Tuesday, April 03, 2001 2:42 PM Subject: Finding scar tissue This sounds like a question for Dr. Kolb..... , what tests do you suggest for those looking for residual scar tissue? I know that Dr. Feng used to work (still does?) with a particular doctor that had an outstanding reputation for finding residual silicone via ultrasound--Dr. Macnamara? I can't quite remember, but I know he helped many women who had ruptured silicone gel implants, working in conjunction with Dr. Feng. Dr. Kolb, we appreciate your reply!
