I feel good

[MartyD]

I know when my team comes to me and asks me to acquire a second tool, they like what the new tool is helping them accomplish.  If there are competing brands of the tool on the market, I'm never surprised when they choose a different brand because that brand has re-engineered the tool to makes it even better.  Duke University buying a second unit tells me VPT is not only useful, it's the best option on the market. Sure. MAYO may feel a competing brand is better, but my guess is if the technicians at Duke feel VPT is the best and worth buying two, that many others will be taking notice and it won't be long before this gets going.  Especially when insurance companies start dictating the level of care. Insurance companies may start insisting on VPT before sending the patient for an MRI.  This should be hovering around .50 and head to a dollar so don't be surprised if it's spring loaded and it shoots past both those targets without giving us a chance to collect.  Just my opinion and I admit. I'm biased and waiting for 2025.

I should have written it to read "another institution may find another brand better..."  I'll be more careful in the future.  I am encouraged that Duke finds VPT valuable enough to

Not sure that it has any meaning at this point in time but I did notice the patent application for a hand probe is now back with a USPTO examiner for further review. It had been rejected back in October 2023 for conflict with other probe applications. The inventor has done more work and research and it has been accepted for further review as of Apr. 29, 2024.
