Description: Incisionless Focused Ultrasound for Essential Tremor Treatment provides immediate tremor improvement In a single, outpatient procedure.
Essential tremor, also referred to as familial, idiopathic, or benign tremor, causes uncontrollable shaking that can deeply impact a person’s quality of life. When medications fail to offer relief, surgical intervention may be the next step. Focused ultrasound is a treatment option that provides tremor control without surgical incisions and with minimal complications. 1
During the treatment, under MRI guidance, sound waves are precisely focused on the small spot in the brain considered to be responsible for causing tremors. Low energy is first applied, which allows the patient to inform the physician of any sensations they feel or other potential side effects. Then the physician can make individualized adjustments to the target. The energy is gradually increased to create a small therapeutic lesion.
For many patients, the result is immediate improvement of tremor in the treated hand. More than 3,500 patients (and growing everyday) have been treated to date around the world.
