Deep Brain Stimulation v Focused Ultrasound: Which Is the Right Option for You?

[@ienjoysandwiches]

Wish there was more quantitative information about long term efficacy of bilateral FUS vs DBS (ie. % effectiveness after 5 years, 10 years etc)

Great presentation Dr Bari. I had bilateral Stn dbs in November done but Professor Zrinzo in London. What a positive result. I’m indebted to all of you who work and evolve this technology . My procedure (inc Boston Scientific stimulator) was all done under General Anaesthetic

How r u now?

What about people who have cervical dystonia. I herd this is successful with dystonia.

Feeling ok. Balance a bit compromised but no tremor

[@laggerb4680]

As one who does both DBS & FUS can you determine which is actually a better option for a patient. Or is it more a patient preference? I have both resting & active tremor, which has become worse in the last 2 yrs & is my main symptom. Levodopa (or other meds) do not do anything for me that I can notice. I am a 78 yr old female in good health.

if you've watched the video, and didn't get an answer to your question, please see a doctor with this question.

The amount of medical scam advertisements during any medical videos is staggering. Someone needs to make a Dr. Oz filter extension.
