Dexter Cheney could barely hold a pen in his trembling hand due to advanced Parkinson's Disease.
When asked to trace a spiral drawn on paper, his marks looked like jagged teeth that trailed off into a series of dots.
A ground-breaking procedure conducted at Hartford Hospital in August, however, controlled the tremors inside the man's hands. He traced the spiral again with one smooth, solid stroke.
The life-changing procedure was the first use of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in Connecticut.
Conducted by Dr. Patrick Senatus, MD, Director of Functional Neurosurgery at the Hartford HealthCare Ayer Neuroscience Institute, the incisonless treatment offered immediate improvement in the man's essential tremor. 👏
