Abstract
MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) has proven its efficacy and safety for the treatment of essential tremor (ET) and/or Parkinson's disease (PD). However, having a cardiac pacemaker has been considered an exclusion criterion for the use of MRgFUS. Only 2 patients with a cardiac pacemaker treated with MRgFUS have been previously reported, both treated using 1.5-T MRI. In this paper, the authors present their experience performing 3-T MRgFUS thalamotomy in 4 patients with an implanted cardiac pacemaker. Treatments were uneventful regarding complications or severe side effects. MRgFUS using 3-T MRI was found to be an efficient and safe treatment for ET and/or PD in patients with an MRI-compatible pacemaker.
