Summary
This study tests whether low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) — gentle sound waves — can temporarily reduce tremors in people with essential tremor. Researchers will target specific brain areas and measure changes in tremor and brain activity. The goal is to understand brain circuits and explore a non-invasive way to ease symptoms. 60 adults already scheduled for a related procedure will participate.
