Shouldn't some study groups invest more into this treatment to see if the risk/benefits goes far beyond the one year thresthold for patient who has opted for this procedure. A positive report would help in insurance companies paying for this procedure. Are there any prospects for future studies pretaining to this treatment? It sounds like it works, it's none invasive, and no to little pain for the patient.
