In this video, Professor Ludvic Zrinzo explains how MR Guided Focused Ultrasound combines MRI imaging with focused ultrasound energy to treat tremor.

MRI allows doctors to identify the area of the brain responsible for tremor.

Focused ultrasound energy can then be directed precisely to that point to interrupt the brain circuit causing the symptoms.

The treatment is incisionless and performed while the patient remains awake so doctors can monitor tremor improvement during the procedure.

For eligible patients whose tremor is no longer well controlled with medication, this treatment may offer another option.

In this video, Steve shares his experience immediately after treatment for Essential Tremor.

Before treatment, tremor affected both arms. After MR Guided Focused Ultrasound to his right side, he is able to lift his hand steadily and take a drink without tremor.

He describes feeling “over the moon”.

MR Guided Focused Ultrasound is an incisionless treatment delivered using real-time MRI guidance.

It may be suitable for eligible patients with Essential Tremor, and for tremor-dominant Parkinson’s where tremor remains the primary disabling symptom.

If tremor is affecting your independence or daily life, it may be worth exploring whether treatment could be an option for you.

One Treatment. A life-changing difference.

Before treatment, something as small as drawing a circle can feel impossible for patients living with tremor.

After undergoing MR-Guided Focused Ultrasound, many are able to perform this test with confidence and control—often within minutes of the procedure.

This small but powerful comparison shows just how effective this non-invasive treatment can be for people with Essential Tremor or Tremor-Dominant Parkinson’s disease.

If you are living with ongoing neck, back or leg pain, finding the exact cause is not always straightforward.

CT-guided injections are used when imaging alone cannot clearly identify the source of pain.

Using real-time CT imaging, a specialist radiologist guides an injection directly to the nerve or joint suspected to be causing symptoms.

At Queen Square Imaging Centre, these procedures are carried out by expert neuroradiology consultants using high-quality CT guidance.

This allows medication to be delivered precisely where it is needed, helping to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and in many cases avoid more invasive treatment.

CT-guided injections can also support diagnosis. Temporarily numbing a specific nerve can help confirm whether it is responsible for symptoms, enabling a clearer and more informed treatment plan.

Our team works closely with your consultant to support a personalised approach to pain management.

Find out whether a CT-guided injection could be appropriate for you by speaking to your consultant or visiting our website.

One drawing. Two moments. A life transformed.

These spirals were drawn by the same patient, before and immediately after MR-Guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) treatment for tremor.

The difference is remarkable. And it is not just about lines on paper.

It is about drinking from a cup without spilling, buttoning a shirt, signing your name.

It is independence, confidence and daily life restored.

MRgFUS is an incisionless, outpatient procedure performed in partnership with the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery.

Over 25,000 patients worldwide have already experienced its benefits, with clinical studies showing durable results.

The results speak for themselves.

Essential tremor affects around 1 million people in the UK and can make everyday activities such as writing, drinking from a cup or eating increasingly difficult.

While medication helps many people manage symptoms, some individuals continue to experience tremor that affects daily life.

For eligible patients whose tremor is no longer well controlled with medication, MR Guided Focused Ultrasound may be considered.

This incisionless treatment uses focused ultrasound energy guided by MRI to target the area of the brain responsible for tremor.

At Queen Square Imaging Centre, treatment is delivered in partnership with specialists from the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery. Patients remain under the care of their referring clinician throughout the treatment pathway.
