Hi,

My daughter never had a CT, MRI, or xray because her doctor could tell

from her head shape that it was purely positional. I would ask your

doc why they think the CT etc is not required, and if there is a doubt

request one. A lot of doctors routinely requested, but many are

confident going by the shape and feel of the head. Also cranio is

rare, and I haven't heard of any tumors on this site.

I don't know how the columbia MD location is - did you visit and talk

to them about how many babies they treat etc? I would suggest doing

this and also visiting CT so you can compare.

Please let us know what you decide.
