Shell,

Currently JH is the only site for this treatment. Dr. Brodsky has the patent or liscense for this protocol and has all the experience on how this proceedure works. JH is really set up to make this work with the IPOP and the vast knowledge of what happens during the proceedure. They have been using this on many more patients than just MS for several years. Once of the problems that Accentia is going to have is the logistics of setting up sites that will be qualified to administer this protocol once it is approved for the mainstream.
