Dopler studies only confirm decompression theories if you believe that they are detecting the bubble that might cause (or accompany) DCS if severe enough.
The problem with ratio deco (and I'm not saying to not use it per se) is that while you can confim the fit for a given point (exposure) against any number of tables that have been derived in the conventional manner of (biological or physical model) -> math model -> (table or computer), the fact that it is just a curve fitting exercise does not argue against there being some catastrophic holes into which a specific exposure might fall.
