- Sunnybrook researchers are paving the way for broader applications of the use of focused ultrasound to address essential tremor, a common and debilitating movement disorder that leads to shaking in the body.
Researchers have now launched a new clinical trial at Sunnybrook using MRI-guided focused ultrasound investigating the safety of this treatment for both hands in essential tremor.
In 2012 Sunnybrook brain scientists pioneered the focused ultrasound procedure for essential tremor. Health Canada approved focused ultrasound for unilateral (one-sided) treatment of essential tremor in 2016.

It is amazing they should work on a cure for mild essential tremor. When medications don't work.

I am 74 and I've been dealing with this since my 20's. I'm waiting for the day when you are able to help the people who have essential tremors, but they have a pacemaker. I'm one of those people. Hopefully soon.
