Dr Nigam agrees to doubling slick NW6/NW7

[Arashi]

Perhaps, I guess I don't trust the photos will be perfect each time, so the more sets that are taken then the more conclusive it'll be, but yeah I tend to agree that it's probably not necessary for 2 week photos...However....

if we were talking about the invivo process, the the regrowth would start right away right? Just like it does with Gho. Correct me if I'm wrong here?

I know we should probably concentrate on Invitro, BUT, why the hell would invivo produce regrowth immediately, but Invitro doesn't?

I do agree with JJJJRs that we should keep the whole thing as simple as possible. Getting the subjects each time to the clinic when it's not necessary should be avoided. And maybe I'm missing something but to me it just seems a matter of comparing pre-op to the final post-op. And if the final post-op isn't good enough, we can ask to shoot more.

LIke you said, I don't know how much will regrow after 2 weeks. Also I'm not really sure why we'd have to get pictures in between ? We just need the pre-op photo and the end result. We can then look for areas to compare the density of the pre-op photo and the post-op photo. Just some arbitrary areas.

Ha, we seem to keep posting the same thing within a minute of each other. All good though.

After the procedure is done, we will ask Dr Nigam to take as many high quality photos of the donor area. This will give us a good indication of what has been extracted on the day. Again they will need to be macro. This set of photos isn't essential but it will help!

We will then ask Nigam to produce another set of photos about 2 weeks after the procedure of the donor. Again it will need to be a full set of photos from the donor.

This is when WE decide which areas we will be analysing. We pick 3 areas, obviously we won't declare which 3 areas yet (that would be suicide). Dr Nigam will have no idea, so he can't cheat.

I don't know if we'll see much regrowth after 2 weeks, but assuming there isn't the donor area should be in a bit of a mess at that point, sparse as hell.

I'm guessing after 6 months would be the perfect time to take another set of photos to do the end evaluation of the first 5000 extractions.

We go again for 2nd procedure with another 5000 approx.

If this didn't work, just imagine the state of a NW7's donor after having 10,000 - 12,000 grafts extracted. There will be nowhere to hide.

That's right. This is the crux of the matter.

Until it gets the complete mapping of the donor and the approval from the pictures PRE-OP must not do the transplant.

Photos can be made in the preliminary visit, nigam then sends it to us and then, if everything is ok, we go.

Even if the post op photos were horrible, we would infinite chances to have the candidate have more photos done.

It's all about the pre op pics. This is why I suggest leaving about a week between the pre op photos and starting the procedure.
