Focused Ultrasound platform for treating Essential Tremor and Parkinson’s Disease
Insightec is a company that has developed a Focused Ultrasound platform called Exablate Neuro, which is designed to treat Essential Tremor and Parkinson’s Disease. This platform utilizes up to 1,024 ultrasound waves that are directed across the skull in order to ablate a target deep within the brain. This form of treatment is performed without incision and typically takes place in an MRI suite on an outpatient basis. The physician administering the treatment sits in the MRI control room and uses a computer mouse to create a lesion, which is guided by MR imaging for patient-specific treatment planning, real-time thermal feedback, and continuous treatment monitoring. This technology represents a disruptive approach to treating these conditions.
