Tremor

A tremor is a recurring shaking of a body part caused by unintentional muscular contraction. The most common cause is essential tremor. However, other conditions including Parkinson’s disease, stroke and multiple sclerosis can also cause tremor. We offer sophisticated brain imaging in the form of DaTscan™ that can assist with the diagnosis of tremor. Deep brain stimulation surgery is offered to patients with severe tremor not responding to medications.
