[ IMTI, NEPF ] I'd ask both IMTI and Theragenics (note 800 number)...... theragenics.com about patents. Theragenics' efforts are highly respected, and a search for U.S. patents turned up this.... patents.ibm.com A search for IMAGYN turned up tons of patents, but nothing relating to radioactive seeds or prostate. This does NOT mean that they don't have a proprietary stance. It just means that I didn't find one. I'm certain that you know about this, which appeared the day after your note (I just found it, however)....... fnews.yahoo.com I noticed that IMAGYN talks about palladium and iodine, a gamma emitter. All of the Theragenics patents address only palladium and X-rays. If this is a practical route around the effective Theragenics/JNJ alliance, I don't see it. Hopefully IR at IMTI will. Cheers! Rick
