MR-GUIDED FOCUSED ULTRASOUND OFFERS QUICK RELIEF WITH LOW RISK

Focused ultrasound is a safe, incisionless and minimally-invasive treatment that uses beams of acoustic energy to heat and destroy a small, targeted area of brain tissue where tremor cells are located — all without harming adjacent tissues. The focused ultrasound leads to precise destruction of the cells, thereby reducing hand tremor. When paired with MR imaging, a complete anatomical survey of the treatment area allows for patient-specific planning and real-time monitoring.

Watch neurosurgeon Kara Beasley, DO, describe this revolutionary no-incision treatment option for essential tremor (ET).
