My first instinct is to wonder who on the advisory board owns how much stock in which companies that do these scans.

It's a $300 ultrasound test. You can get one at any doctor's office or clinic anywhere in the US. Don't know many doctor's offices that are public companies, sorry.

There's all sorts of ways to make money off of unnecessary medical tests. That's not much of a refutation... someone has to sell/maintain the machines, and analyze the data, at a minimum.

Damn! I need to raise my fees. :-)

Medicare pays a global fee of $87.94.
