Listen "MR-guided Focused Ultrasound: Essential Treatment for Essential Tremor"
Episode Synopsis
Sepehr Sani, MD, joins Rounding at Rush to discuss MR-guided focused ultrasound, a safe, incisionless treatment designed to reduce hand tremor in patients with essential and parkinsonian tremor. It targets a specific area of the brain with high-intensity focused ultrasound, guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Dr. Sani is a neurosurgeon at RUSH University Medical Center and an associate professor of neurosurgery at RUSH Medical College. Among his many clinical interests, Sani focuses on deep brain stimulation, Parkinson's disease, essential tremor and vagal nerve stimulation.
“MR-guided focused ultrasound represents a paradigm shift,” says Dr. Sani. It is a “really life-changing treatment without having to have any anesthesia, without having to have a single incision … they literally walk in and walk out. In the neurosurgical realm, … to be able to offer a treatment to a patient without using a knife, is a first. It’s pretty amazing."
