Henry J.M. Barnett MEMORIAL enry J.M. Barnett, neurologist, known as Barney, was born in HNewcastle-Upon-Tyne, United Kingdom, in 1922 and died in Toronto, Canada, on October 20, 2016.

Part of the success of these trials came from Barney’s understanding of the value of an angio- graphic core lab for the studies; the success of the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET) came, in part, from the core lab’s insistence on consistent, reproducible stenosis quantification.
