Abstract
MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) provides an incisionless treatment option for tremor-dominant Parkinson’s patients who do not respond to medications. Candidates for treatment must be Parkinsonian tremor patients 30 years or older.
During treatment, ultrasound waves heat and ablate the deep brain target with no surgical incisions. Treatment is guided by MR imaging for patient-specific planning, real-time temperature monitoring as well as immediate assessment of treatment outcome.
The result for many patients is immediate improvement of tremor with minimal complications of cancer cell lines.
