Customer Reviews
Teaser Arteriovision
The podcast is limited to 90 seconds, so you cant really expect too much info. This item is very interesting for people my age, but would even be more useful if they had some sort of a way get people who have been "hooked" by the story connected to more information. I had a CIMT last year and think it is really a great, cheap way to get ahead of coronary disease.
Tech Tidbits ought to have follow-up links
Nice 90 second science summaries, but further follow-up of the technology ought to be provided, with links to other sites or addresses of scientists involved in development.
