Title: Parkinson’s Tremors Stopped by New Machine
Post by: Lartinos on January 14, 2025, 11:07:47 AM
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — Delray Medical Center cut the ribbon on its newest high-tech machine last week that targets brain areas to treat movement disorders such as essential tremor and tremor-dominant Parkinson’s disease.

The machine can stop the involuntary trembling of the heat and hands experienced by people with neurological disorders in one treatment using focused ultrasound guided by MRI.

So the machine destroys the part of the brain that controls the tremors?

Is this covered under the 51st state's (Canada) free healthcare system?
