Re: Toronto pallidotomy research: Contact: Clinical Trials Coordinator,Movement Disorders Clinic Toronto Western Hospital Tel. 416-369-5875 Fax. 416-369.5004 or Dr. Anthony Lang, Department of Neurology Toronto Western Hospital Tel. 416-369- 6422 Dr. Tasker and Dr. Lozano are the neurosurgeons. In phase one of the project 20 pallidotomies were performed. Phase 2 began in Sept.94 and they are accepting out of province applications. I don't think there have been any results published but patient feed back is mostly positive. You will find this interesting - Dr. Tasker, as well as being recognised internationally for his surgical skills is held in high esteem as "one of the all time greats of the old school" by past student - R. Iacono!! Regards to all. Moira Peter J. Kidd Learning Materials Consulting Services Phone & Fax: (902) 443-4262 Email: [log in to unmask]
