Warangal - MRgFUS for Parkinson's Disease and Essential Tremor

History lives in every stone in Warangal, from the Kakatiya-era forts to the temples and the lakes. Warangal has preserved its culture, but the people have successfully integrated modern technology and healthcare as well. Though these advancements have made life easier, the reality is that the cases of essential tremor and Parkinson's Disease are some of the conditions which severely impact the lives of some individuals. These are neurological disorders in which a person is unable to control a tremor, thus complicating tasks such as eating, writing, and even holding a cup, as they are more likely to spill the contents of the cup.

Transforming Lives Without Surgery - MRgFUS
Absence of surgical treatment options for patients with severe tremors and whose condition remained unchanged with medicines is, to some, a black box in medical technology advancement. Such patients were more often than not presented with the option of brain surgery. Brain surgeries are arguably the most invasive surgeries one can undergo, involving opening the skull, long periods of hospitalisation, and high recovery times. But modern technology has shifted this narrative, presenting a powerful, sleek, and MRgFUS (known fully as Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound) as a viable option. KIMS Hospitals in Hyderabad offers this state-of-the-art technology at KIMS Neurosciences.

What is MRgFUS?

MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery targets and disrupts the precise regions of the brain generating the tremors using ultrasound waves while the patient is fully conscious and under real-time MRI guidance. Because it involves no incisions, no stitches, and no general anaesthesia, it is MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery. In fact, there are no surgical incisions of any sort. During the procedure, some of the patients' tremors decrease considerably. They even leave within hours! Much of the treatment is completed on an outpatient basis.

Patients travelling from Warangal to Hyderabad do MRgFUS on a single day and tend to leave within hours. KIMS Neurosciences offers customised telemedicine consultations. Patients from Warangal, Hanamkonda, Kazipet, and even patients from other towns now have very easy access to specialists and do not have to visit several different towns on multiple occasions.

Your Treatment Journey:

• Patients send in medical images - prior to the consultation to help guide the consultation. Doctors determine the diagnosis and assess if the patient is a candidate for MR.
• One-Day Procedure - Patients are fitted for the MRI and are assessed for the ultrasound on the same day.

Why Choose MRgFUS at KIMS Neurosciences?

• No incisions - No surgical cuts or stitches are required, making it one of the safest forms of surgery.
• Easily recover - Come out of the clinic in just a pair of hours.

"My life changed as soon as I could sign my name, drink tea without spilling, or do some fine embroidery, cooking, or gardening." This is what most patients with MRgFUS claim. It is more than just controlling the tremors; it is regaining self-assurance and a sense of freedom.
