Brief description of study

The Exablate Model 4000 Type-1.0/1.1 Neuro system involves using an advanced, non-invasive technique currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat one side of your brain in a procedure called a thalamotomy (lesion the thalamus). This procedure involves performing an ablation (lesion) of an area of the thalamus (a region in your brain) essential for treating Essential Tremor. While treating one side of the brain works well for patients that have a tremor dominance on one side of their body, patients that are bilaterally (both sides) affected with Essential Tremor may desire a bilateral treatment.

This trial is being offered to Penn Medicine patients that have been diagnosed with Essential Tremor and previously completed an Exablate Index Procedure to treat their Essential Tremor.
