Subject: Re: Quality Control in Cryonics
From:  (Edgar W Swank)

Tim Freeman asked about what measurements are made for quality control
during a suspension.  Answer: plenty, at least by the hi-tech
providers like BPI. For an example, see the BPI report on the suspension
of ACS member Jerry White.  The report itself is in the Cryonet archive,
but convenient pointers can be found at the ACS web page at
