For most of his life, Mike lived with essential tremor. Today, he is regaining control of his hand and everyday activities thanks to a groundbreaking, incision-free treatment at Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute.
Mike underwent MRI-Guided Focused Ultrasound, an advanced therapy for patients living with essential tremor and certain forms of Parkinson’s disease. His care was led by Dr. Jan Hachmann, neurosurgeon at Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute, whose team is helping redefine what is possible for patients with movement disorders.
In this video, Dr. Hachmann shares how this innovative approach uses focused ultrasound waves guided by advanced MRI technology to precisely target the area of the brain responsible for tremors. The result is a new level of control, confidence and independence for patients like Mike.
Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute is proud to offer MRI-Guided Focused Ultrasound as part of its commitment to advancing neurological care. 🧡
