Larkin – A Breakthrough for Essential Tremor

Focused Ultrasound Breakthrough at Larkin

Imagine being able to hold a glass of water again—without fear of it slipping from your hands. For those living with essential tremor or Parkinson’s disease, this isn’t just a small victory—it’s life-changing. Thanks to a revolutionary new treatment at the Miami Neuroscience Center at Larkin, hope has become a clinical reality.
On December 13, 2024, the center performed its first Focused Ultrasound procedures using the Insightec Exablate Neuro platform. Under the expert leadership of Dr. Aizik Wolf, these non-invasive procedures brought immediate relief to patients who once struggled with daily tasks due to uncontrollable tremors.

What is Focused Ultrasound?
Focused Ultrasound (FUS) is an FDA-approved outpatient procedure for individuals with essential tremor or tremor-dominant Parkinson’s disease. Guided by real-time MRI imaging, the procedure uses sound waves to target specific areas of the brain responsible for tremors. It requires no incisions, no anesthesia, and involves minimal recovery time.
Many patients report improvement the same day—often within hours of treatment.

Why This Matters for Patients
Tremors can rob people of their independence, making simple activities—like writing, eating, or getting dressed—frustrating and embarrassing. For many, medications lose their effectiveness over time or cause side effects. Until now, surgery was the only alternative.
Focused Ultrasound changes that.
It offers precision, safety, and results without the risks of invasive surgery. Patients walk into the treatment room—and walk out changed.

What One Patient Had to Say

“Before the procedure, my hands would shake uncontrollably. I couldn’t even hold a glass of water. Just hours after treatment, I was tremor-free. I feel like myself again.”

Stories like this are why Dr. Wolf and his team are so passionate about bringing this technology to South Florida. At Larkin, the mission is simple: provide innovative treatments that restore dignity, independence, and peace of mind.

Key Benefits of Focused Ultrasound

Non-Invasive: No cuts, no stitches, no hospital stay

Precision Targeting: Only the affected area is treated

Rapid Recovery: Most patients resume normal activities the same day

Proven Results: Many experience immediate and long-lasting relief

The Technology Behind the Breakthrough
The Exablate Neuro platform allows for highly precise targeting, ensuring accuracy and safety. With MRI guidance, physicians can monitor brain activity in real time and adjust as needed. This means more effective treatment and reduced risk.
Dr. Aizik Wolf, a pioneer in non-invasive neurosurgery, led the team through the center’s first successful procedures—setting a new standard in neurological care across Miami and beyond.

A Moment in Medical History

“The good physician treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease.”– William Osler

This quote reflects the heart of Larkin’s approach. It’s not just about treating symptoms—it’s about transforming lives with compassion, technology, and personal care.

Takeaway
Focused Ultrasound is more than a new procedure—it’s a new beginning. For those living with tremors, it means fewer limitations and more control. For healthcare in South Florida, it means leading the way in non-invasive innovation.
