Overview
- Gottschalk told Bild that he had his second whole‑body PET last Thursday and that no cancer was detectable in the scan results.
- The finding confirms earlier announcements this year that he was 'in the moment' cancer‑free after intensive treatment including two operations, 33 radiations and three weeks of rehab.
- Gottschalk says he is not yet fully recovered but feels better week by week and will remain under scheduled follow‑up checks.
- His wife Karina, who managed his care and appointments during treatment, described the result as a 'small miracle' after doctors initially gave a poor prognosis.
- Doctors used PET imaging because it shows metabolic activity of tumours; specialists will keep monitoring him closely because epitheloid angiosarcoma is a rare, aggressive cancer with a high risk of recurrence.
