FULL BODY PET SCAN WHY NOT?

My mother was recently operated for mastectomy post mammography and biopsy. Histopathlogy reports post surgery indicate they got all of the tumors out in the breast with negative margins. There were 2 tumors, both pathologically considered T2 (staging), as suspected by her imaging. However, her lymph nodes are involved (5+) and there are cells outside of the lymph nodes in her axillary region (N2 stage). Both Oncosurgeon and Oncologist confirm she  requires radiation and chemotherapy as next step of treatment. However both Oncosurgeon and Oncologist were not ready to prescribe PET SCAN pre or post surgery and pre Chemotherapy or pre Radiation. What could be the reason? When such huge amounts are being spend on surgeries and therapy why the hesitation for PET full body scan? Would it not had given a better picture pre surgery? Won't it give a better picture before starting chemotherapy and radiation especially when radiation is specific and focused and not for full body?
