Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound unilateral thalamotomy for medically refractory essential tremor: 3-year follow-up data [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionMagnetic resonance–guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy of the ventralis intermediate (Vim) nucleus is an “incisionless” treatment for medically refractory essential tremor (ET). We present data on 49 consecutive cases of MRgFUS Vim
