Frequency Analysis of Involuntary Movements during Wrist Tracking: A Way to Identify MS Patients with Tremor Who Benefit from Thalamotomy
2000
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery
To identify those multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with disabling tremor who will benefit most from thalamotomy, measurements of frequency spectra of involuntary movements during visually guided wrist tracking were carried out in 11 consecutive patients with MS before and after ventrolateral thalamotomy. Thalamotomy was significantly more effective if patients had disruptive action tremor which appeared as a single peak in the frequency spectra. Such patients showed an average reduction of
