Thanks for getting the SVFC board back to the DD. That is what is important. DD and charts.
I can see a day when stem cells from these procedures are cryopreserved. Down the road, should you break your arm or your ankle, those cells could be used to help you heal rapidly. I think Cytori's device has enormous potential. I respect the fact that it is targeting CMI with a peak oxygen consumption endpoint along a PMA (device) pathway.
Once the company completes the current phase 2 study successfully, all it will need to do is one modestly sized phase 3 trial. Proving safety is less of an issue with the device pathway, so the pivotal trial's focus is a p-value (statistically valid result) on a relevant endpoint.
