dawg, do you want recent bandings? I would think if someone hasn't been banded for, say, 6 months, erosion statistics are meaningless for that patient. LMK what you think a good time frame is.

You are entirely correct Gadget

I will take anyone of any banded duration because right now - my statistics are (for want of a better word) meaningless. This study will only get meaning with duration and I'm not expecting anything 'super' usefull for a year or so.

Currently our major crop of bansters have a band date of end of 2005 to current time. We do have a few 'older' bandsters on board but I'm not expecting to extrapolate anything until I have an excellent base.

So keep em coming. Until I get a good database of information - I can't deliver good results.
