We have a new technology called focused ultrasound, which we use to treat essential tremor, and I took care of a woman in her 90s who had a very severe debilitating tremor. I went to see her in the recovery room where she was eating soup for the first time in about three or four years, and she was just so happy to eat a bowl of soup. Thats why we do this kind of neurosurgery because we can give somebody their function back remembers Dr. Gonzalez.
