Looks like this may be the first women who's had it done. I almost started to cry when she was running!
thanks for that link. pretty amazing results in that one patient. lots of questions of course but also happy to hear ET patients have had positive outcome last for a year. i assume this replaces pallidotomy, thalamotomy, old surgical procedures and an alternative to DBS.

I assume a lot cheaper than DBS for obvious reasons.
