Holy flying hyperbole--
that woman posted Canadian MS Society fundraiser info, and started fights on three separate FB pages....so I deleted her Canadian MS Society post, since fur was flying....
there is no white-washing. Yikes. It had nothing to do with CCSVI. She was advertising a Canadian MS Society fundraiser and began fighting with Canadians....her post is still up on the Toronto page and the UBC clinic page. I just chose to remover her trolling. As admin, I get to do that.
And I've written about Zivadinov over and over again on this site and Facebook, but no one seems to remember...his research is showing the inconsistancies with STATIC MRVs....very different than the Haacke 3D time of flight protocol which measures flow, not just architecture. And tht includes COLLATERALS. The doctors are discussing this at the upcoming International Society of Neurovascular Disease Meeting in March. Come to Bologna and learn.
Bologna, March 14-15, 2011 Italy
CNR National Research Council of Bologna – via Gobetti 101
Major topics covered:
Ultrasound and MR imaging in treatment planning
The role of iron in MS and neurodegenerative disease
Perfusion deficits and hypoxia and possible relationships to CCSVI
New evidence of CCSVI in animal models
Related vascular problems: venous embriology, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, normotensive hydrocephalus, carotid surgery in stroke
CCSVI treatment: procedure and neurological outcomes
Genetic studies
Plethysmography
Flow dynamics: modeling the cerebral venous system
Why would Zivadinov even be involved if there was no there there??? This is what Zivadinov wants....
Standardized guidelines are needed to define parameters for the presence of venous anomalies
He and Dr. Zamboni want doppler US to be the standardized protocol.

meet me in Bologna, and take up your beef with me in person. Talk to Zivadinov and Haacke and Zamboni....yes, I'm a real individual, working hard to keep doctors and patients in dialogue, and reporting back. Anonymous insinuation and nasty comments are the cowards' way...
