Ranked Claims
Advances in targeting, thermometry, and biological effects such as histotripsy could expand accessibility and indications for MRgFUS.
The extended use of MRgFUS is limited by skull density ratio limitations and restricted approved indications.
MRgFUS has emerged as an alternative to surgical procedures for essential tremor by enabling incisionless thalamic lesioning.
The review states that MRgFUS is a precise, incisionless alternative that is now included in clinical guidelines.
The review states that MRgFUS thalamotomy results in immediate and sustained tremor reduction in essential tremor.
