Perhaps what you are asking is impossible?
http://drcranton.com/chelation/rebuttal.htm
Arteriograms before and after treatment are demanded by critics to prove
benefit from chelation therapy. It is not possible, however, to accurately
measure decreases in atherosclerotic plaque unless the diameter of the
artery is increased by approximately 25%. In the presence of turbulent
blood flow past plaques, it requires only a 10% increase in arterial
diameter to double the flow of blood (Poiseuille's Law of hemodynamics as
can be found in any textbook of medical physiology or biophysics). As proven
in studies, arteriograms and ultrasound are not sensitive enough to
consistently measure changes of less than 25% in the diameter of a blood
vessel. Increases much less than that can greatly relieve or totally
eliminate symptoms, and are not detectable on arteriograms.
How would you measure this?
