Usually people are getting an MRV (an MRI of the veins of the head/neck) or, less commonly, a transcranial doppler ultrasound. The difficulty has been in finding doctors to order the tests and IRs or vascular surgeons who are onboard with CCSVI enough to perform the surgical procedure if indicated. Best of luck.
