Winnipeg Vascular & Endovascular Symposium April 22 to 24
Have had a look at the agenda to see if anything looks pertinent to CCSVI in case anyone in Winnipeg has the opportunity to attend this, to possibly ask some pertinent questions on behalf of those of us seeking screening and treatment in Canada. Seems that very few minutes might be dedicated to CCSVI related things, but these events can be useful for lobbying and getting a chance to ask some direct questions about policy and practice to speakers.
Have cut and pasted the very small sections which may be of interest. I tried to include more context and to retype the relevant bits in bold, but am still inept at posting and word processing. Perhaps if you are interested you can go to the website and check it out in context. Also if you are able to post a link to the site it might be helpful to others.
