Though essential tremor is the most common movement disorder, many people have not heard of it. This neurological condition causes uncontrollable shaking and differs from Parkinson’s disease, also a movement disorder. Treatment options for essential tremor include medications, therapies and procedures including deep brain stimulation, offered at Yale New Haven Hospital, and high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU).

“Focused ultrasound is minimally invasive, does not involve surgery and is completed as an outpatient procedure,” said Hae-Young Hawong, DO, PhD, a neurologist with Yale New Haven Health and an assistant professor of Neurology, Yale School of Medicine. “Many patients experience immediate tremor reduction right after the procedure, and clinical studies report improvement in up to 75 percent of patients for as long as five years.” HIFU, offered by Greenwich Hospital, will be available at Adams Neuroscience Center at Yale New Haven Hospital when it opens in 2027. http://ynh.care/11R

Yale New Haven Hospital’s Adams Neurosciences Center is set to transform patient care with advanced radiology technology – some of which is the first of its kind in Connecticut.

“This technology will help us expand our already advanced radiology and biomedical imaging capabilities and research,” said Cristina Fuss, MD, PhD, professor and most recently interim chair of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, Yale School of Medicine. “Imaging is obviously integral to diagnoses, but for many patients, it is a critical component of treatment plans.”

Among several pieces of technology to be housed at the Neurosciences Center will be the state’s first PET-MRI and Yale New Haven Hospital’s second iMRI. The PET-MRI combines MRI’s detailed anatomical imaging with positron emission tomography (PET), which can show areas with high metabolic activity, such as tumors. The iMRI allows surgeons to see the exact state of tissues and structures while they operate and adjust the surgical plan on the spot if needed.

Yale New Haven Health wishes you a happy and healthy Thanksgiving.

11/26/2025

The holiday season brings family, food and fun but also a higher risk of cooking burns. Thanksgiving is one of the busiest times of year at The Connecticut Burn Center at Bridgeport Hospital. Alisa Savetamal, MD, director of the Burn Center, shares ways to keep your celebrations injury-free. She says it's all about being aware of potential kitchen dangers.

Some quick tips:

1️⃣Stay alert. Never leave cooking food unattended and be aware of what's happening in the kitchen.
2️⃣Turn pot handles inward to prevent unintentional spills and little hands from grabbing them.
3️⃣Use oven mitts to protect your hands and stand back when opening a hot oven.
4️⃣Keep children and pets away from the area.
By taking these precautions, you can help ensure a safe and enjoyable holiday season for you and your family.🦃

One of the best ways to help stop the spread of illness is to avoid contact with others when you’re most contagious. Knowing when to stay home will be critical as the respiratory season ramps up.

Household contact is one of the highest risks for being infected so, if possible, isolate as best you can when you are contagious. That means staying in a separate room, using a separate bathroom, eating meals at different times and opening windows to improve air flow. Learn more http://ynh.care/11v.
