Does anyone know how many liberation procedures have been done at Georgetown University Hospital?

I've heard they have scanned about 40 people. I've also heard that they have done procedures on those whose initial scans didn't show much (or any?) blockage.

I personally know nine that have been done. I know two more people scheduled in the next two weeks.

They did three just yesterday!

Dr. T is not relying exclusively on US to determine who gets the venogram. He also uses the clinical exam findings.
