It is good to hear Mayo is starting to actually do Tulsa, almost one year ago they were just working on buying the machine. I do know they are fairly restrictive on who they will do it with, only because various decisions were made for publications studies that they wouldn't do some gleason scores and so on, even though the makers of Tulsa don't say that. So while good that Mayo is doing it, they have more limits because everything at Mayo is part of a study and everything there is in a study even if you don't realize it. The study parameters determine who gets it, not your need. So if Mayo accepts you for Tulsa, good. If they say no, try another place because they have study parameters they have to work with for the study.
