Ultrasound treatment for essential tremor

Essential TremorNeuromodulation

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This trial tests if a focused ultrasound treatment can help people with essential tremor that hasn't improved with medication. It is designed for those already scheduled for a similar procedure using MRI guidance.

Focused ultrasound treatment for essential tremor

This trial tests a treatment that uses focused ultrasound waves to precisely target and calm the brain area causing your tremor — no surgery or incisions needed. If your tremor isn't well controlled by medication, this treatment might help reduce shaking and improve daily function.

NCT07103265Not yet recruiting· Phase 2
Ultrasound treatment for essential tremor or Parkinson's tremor

This trial tests a new, non-invasive ultrasound method to reduce shaking (tremor) in people with essential tremor or Parkinson's disease. It may offer an alternative to medication or surgery.

NCT06331052Recruiting
Testing a new focused ultrasound treatment for essential tremor

This study is testing a new way to treat essential tremor using focused ultrasound waves guided by MRI to target the part of the brain causing the tremor. The goal is to see if it can reduce tremor without invasive surgery.

NCT07599592Recruiting· Early Phase 1
Ultrasound Treatment for Essential Tremor

This early-stage study tests whether focused ultrasound waves can safely reduce hand tremors in people with essential tremor. The ultrasound is applied from outside the skin without surgery, and researchers want to see if it helps calm unwanted shaking.

NCT07508696Not yet recruiting
Ultrasound brain stimulation for essential tremor

This study tests whether ultrasound waves applied to a part of the brain (the cerebellum) can safely affect brain activity. It involves healthy volunteers and people with essential tremor, a condition causing shaky hands, to see if this approach might help.
