The tests required for detection of Head & Neck cancer and the number of days for the results to come in are:
- Needle Biopsy: 2-3 days
- Endoscopy: 1-2 weeks
- PET-CT scan: 2 days
- X-ray: 1-2 days
- Ultrasound: 1-2 days
- MRI: 1-2 days
As no test requires more than 2 weeks, so I would suggest you to not wait for that long and immediately visit some other doctor.
The hospitals that you can refer in Tamil Nadu: Cancer Hospitals in Tamil Nadu. Hope this helps you.
