Introduction

Purpose Thermal ablation
Study Objective To determine whether public interest in magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound affects enrollment for deep brain stimulation.

Outcomes and Safety

Summary of Outcomes Increased public interest in MRI‑guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) was associated with reduced enrollment in deep brain stimulation (DBS) programs/trials; the study did not test or identify any specific focused ultrasound parameters as successful.
Safety-related matter No mention of safety or adverse effects is present in the provided text.
