An update from;https://www.facebook.com/paul.thibault.37
"Paul Thibault. No we don't use Zamboni's protocol. Our understanding of CCSVI is that it is an obstructive venous disease and Zamboni's protocol is best to assess reflux rather than obstruction. Our own protocol allows for objective measurements of the degree of obstruction and is therefore more useful in initial assessment and monitoring progress of patients.
And
Paul Thibault. I don't think the vascular surgeon that does the venography and venoplasties in our team has access to intravascular ultrasound."
Thanks Dr S for your comment before.
My new thought on this is that every angle has to be tested to a conclusion, and then the total picture will have more colour.

Nigel
