Staged and simultaneous bilateral MRI-guided focused ultrasound treatment of essential tremor
Objective: The study aims to show that effective and safe bilateral MRgFUS treatment of ET is achievable. Background: Unilateral MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy reduces…Cued movement preparation and movement coding in human thalamic neurons
Objective: To study motor cognition in the human motor thalamus at the single cell and population level. Background: The motor thalamus, in particular its cerebellar-receiving…Double-blind, randomized, crossover clinical trial to compare VIM vs PSA deep brain stimulation in patients with disabling essential tremor. Preliminary results.
Objective: To compare the safety, efficacy, energy efficiency and quality of life (QoL) outcomes of bilateral PSA-DBS vs bilateral VIM-DBS in the treatment of refractory…Prospective, Multicenter, International Registry of Deep Brain Stimulation for Essential Tremor
Objective: This is a new Essential Tremor (ET) patient registry for patients implanted with a multiple-source, constant-current DBS system capable of providing directionality for use…Benefits and Risks of Staged Bilateral versus Unilateral VIM DBS for Essential Tremor
Objective: To compare the benefits and risks of staged bilateral versus unilateral VIM DBS using the largest ET DBS clinical trial dataset available to date.…Elimination of STN stimulation-induced dyskinesias with ViM DBS
Objective: To describe effects of thalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) on severe dyskinesias induced by subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS in a person with Parkinson’s disease…Central Pontine Myelinolysis Related Tremor Effectively Treated With Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: To report a rare case of a patient with severe tremors related to central pontine myelinolysis (CPM), and effective treatment of this patient's tremors with…Deep brain stimulation revision from VIM to VIM and PSA severe long-standing refractory ET: case series
Objective: To describe 5 patients with ET who underwent replacement of VIM DBS with leads targeting both VIM and the posterior subthalamic area (PSA) due…VIM stimulation for refractory tremor -the Sheba experience
Objective: This study describes our center's experience with 26 patients who underwent surgery for thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) stimulation between years 2008-2018 Background: Deep-brain…Shower Shock: Directional Lead Malfunction in a Patient with Vim DBS
Objective: To report the occurrence of lead failure in a directional DBS system. Background: Lead failure is a known complications of DBS systems. However, the…
