Abstract: To assess the intraoperative neuroimaging findings in patients treated with transcranial MR-guided focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) thalamotomy using 1.5T equipment in comparison with the 48-h follow-up. Fifty prospectively enrolled patients undergoing unilateral tcMRgFUS thalamotomy for either… read more here.
