Sorry, but this information is a bit older as news :) Anyway, it's was interesting for me.

News from Dr. Zamboni- CCSVI lesions classified as congenitalTuesday, January 26, 2010 at 5:47pm
Received an e-mail from Dr. Zamboni this morning-

A Consensus Conference on Venous Malformations - headed by Prof. Byung B Lee from Georgetown - and experts from 47 countries- studied the evidence and unanimously voted in favour of officially including the stenosing lesions found in CCSVI in the new Consensus document and Guidelines. Now published-

This paper can be brought/linked to interventional radiologists and vascular surgeons. CCSVI lesions are classified as a truncular venous malformations - which means that vascular doctors have now classified this disease, CCSVI, as congenital- and preceding MS lesions.

Vascular doctors have agreed. CCSVI comes first.

Dr. Zamboni has been speaking to medical panels around the world. Yesterday was a "4 hour machine gunning of questions" by the Italian, Canadian and US MS Societies in Milan- Dr. Zamboni said he was able to answer all the questions with scientific evidence, and was quite pleased with the meeting's outcome. He'll be in North American soon

I think it's worth it, for anyone newer or who missed it for one reason or another. The consensus decision boosted the legitimacy of CCSVI.

The problem is with the ! character. This is discussed in the Forums FAQ. The only way to fix this type of problem is with a URL shortening service such as http://tinyurl.com or http://snipurl.com .
