Vascular Fundus Changes in Patients With High Probability of Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency

Our own Dr Diana D. is doing a Clinical trial.
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
Multiple Sclerosis

Purpose
The investigators propose that evidence of chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) may be evident in the vasculature of the fundus. The investigators will be examining fundi of multiple sclerosis patients and Ehlers-Danlos patients to see if evidence of CCSVI can be found in these patients having high risk for CCSVI. The investigators will read the fundus photos, compared to age-matched normals in a "blind" fashion.

I didn't know what the fundus was. Just for saving time for others, here is the explanation

It could also mean this other thing, though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundus_%28brain%29
