BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 25, 2007 - Ronald Trahan Associates ("RTA") Inc. announced today the availability of the inaugural podcast at
www.AutologousAdult StemCells. org entitled, "Regenerative Medicine in Your Doctor's Office", Episode 1.
The scientific literature is rife with studies about the therapeutic potential of autologous adult stem cells derived from a patient's own bone marrow. But, a major obstacle has been to have a simple, practical method for integrating cell therapy in an office setting. This podcast looks at how a sports medicine physician in Chesterfield (St. Louis), Missouri, is making the benefit of regenerative medicine available right now for some of his patients. Dr. David Crane is able to harvest and concentrate autologous adult stem cells easily and quickly, at the point of care: i.e., his office--thereby enabling him to offer non-surgical approaches for treating orthopedic diseases, today.
Until recently, it has been difficult to process and concentrate a clinically significantly dose of adult stem cells from a patient's own bone marrow at the point-of-care. Now, technology from Harvest Technologies (
www.harvesttech.com) is the world's first technique that produces clinically significant amounts of stem and precursor cells from a small aspirate of autologous bone marrow in just 15 minutes. Injected autologous adult stem cell concentrates from bone marrow have been shown in international clinical studies to be significantly effective in achieving tissue regeneration in
orthopedic disease. .........
