Can you tell me what IEEE Spectrum is. Said something about engineers. Is this a publication for the average person? -----Original Message----- From: Murray _Charters <[log in to unmask]> To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thursday, January 08, 1998 9:31 PM Subject: Re: Medtronic's Activa Tremor Control Therapy Friends interested in tremor control; Anyone can access IEEE Spectrum on-line if you have internet capability......just go to this site: http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/newpass.html and fill out their form to access Spectrum. If you'd rather read the manufacturers postings go to: http://medtronic.com/neuro/tremor/index.html or go to: http://www.medtronic.com/neuro/tremor/1benefit.html or go to: http://www.medtronic.com/neuro/tremor/1ask.html and keep clicking on the NEXT to page through all their propaganda. The device bears some similarity to a pacemaker and is for thalamic stimulation. I have no first hand knowledge, just what I've seen in the papers & on the web.
