Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Focused ultrasound for Essential Tremor is an FDA approved treatment performed by neurosurgeons at the Ohio State Center for Neuromodulation that utilizes ultrasound technology to create a lesion in the thalamus of Essential Tremor patients. In order to improve long term effectiveness and reduce potential for side effects, brain imaging may be used to examine the functional connectivity of certain brain networks during the procedure. In order to investigate functional connectivity changes with these long term goals in mind, in this study neuroimaging will be taken immediately before, immediately after, and 24 hours after the focused ultrasound procedure for 10 Essential Tremor patients. One series of neuroimaging will also be conducted for 20 healthy control subjects to serve as a comparison. This study will not introduce any risks above standard of care, and may lead to improved long term outcomes of patients undergoing the Focused Ultrasound procedure.
