First seen Mar 13, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study looks at how a treatment called High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HiFU) affects the brain's communication networks in people with essential tremor. Ten adults over 50 who have not responded to at least two tremor medications will have their brain activity recorded before and after HiFU using safe, non-invasive methods like MEG. The goal is to understand how the treatment changes brain connections and reduces shaking.
