> The "Acu-cell Diagnostic Test" is listed under Quackwatch's list of "dubious diagnostic tests", but nothing more is said about it. Imo, QW is generally knee jerk anti-everything that is not absolutely mainstream medicine (as if that is utterly benign all the time!) so I take that with a grain of salt.I agree about Quackwatch....but, he's right (IMHO) some of the time.... and he's right this time.
The test, as described, is bogus. Totally bogus. As a practitioner using the test method, I could get it to give any results I wanted it to....I've studied the machine itself (or what it seems to be, based on the description).
