Deep brain stimulation in the treatment of cerebellar tremor in young patients
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of DBS on drug-resistant tremor secondary to alterations of the cerebellum or the dentato-rubro-thalamic pathways. Background: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)…A double blind investigation of efficacy and safety of incobotulinumtoxinA in Parkinson’s disease tremor- A customized injection approach
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of incobotulinumtoxinA (IncoA) injection in the tremor of Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Unlike other cardinal motor features of…An international, randomized, sham controlled trial of focused ultrasound thalamotomy for essential tremor
Objective: To determine efficacy and safety of unilateral focused ultrasound thalamotomy for refractory essential tremor. Background: Recent advances in ultrasound transducer technology allow ultrasound to…The efficacy of tremor detection and suppression device in intractable rest tremor in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study was designed to determine the efficacy of the Tremor Detection and Suppression device (TDS) as a therapeutic option in PD patients with…VOP/ZI deep brain stimulation for the relief of tremor in multiple sclerosis
Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of electrical chronic stimulation of ventralis oralis posterior and zona incerta (VOP/ZI) in 3 subjects affected by severely disabling…Whole body vibration therapy with exercise enhances motor function and improves quality of life in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the short term effects of whole body vibration and exercise in patients with Parkinson's disease on overall quality of life, gait, tremor,…Focusing precision and lesion size in cerebello-thalamo-tractotomy by MR imaging-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (MRgFUS)
Objective: Focusing precision in tcMRgFUS tractotomy depends on the ability of the treatment system to compensate for acoustic field distortions induced by the patient skull.…The impact of STN DBS on kinetic tremor in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of STN DBS on kinetic tremor in PD patients in comparison to pharmacologically treated…Unilateral MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound ablation of the cerebellothalamic tract in essential tremor
Objective: To report interim results of an ongoing trial of unilateral transcranial MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) ablation of the cerebellothalamic tract (CTT) in…Toward clinical use of electrode localizations in deep brain stimulation therapy
Objective: To develop an open source software capable of performing electrode localizations certified for clinical use in deep brain stimulation therapy. Background: Deep brain stimulation…
