Clinical Trial: Unilateral and Staged Bilateral Pallidothalamic Tractotomy Using Exablate MRgFUS in Advanced Parkinson's Disease.

U.S., Aug. 15 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07764874) titled 'Unilateral and Staged Bilateral Pallidothalamic Tractotomy Using Exablate MRgFUS in Advanced Parkinson's Disease.' on Aug. 10.

Brief Summary: This study is a randomized clinical trial evaluating a focused ultrasound treatment for people with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) who have disabling motor complications and symptoms.

The study uses the Exablate Neuro System, which delivers MR-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS). This technology focuses ultrasound energy on a specific brain target and generates heat to create a small lesion (ablation) without making a surgical incision.

The target in this study is the Pallidothalamic Tract...
