Webinar: Dr. Gilbert Hosts: DBS, Focused Ultrasound & Stereotactic Radiotherapy for PD—Wednesday, July 15th at 1pm Treatment options for Parkinson’s vary from person to person and often change as the disease progresses. Although prescription medications remain a cornerstone of care, several procedures may also be considered as part of a treatment plan. Deep brain stimulation (DBS), focused ultrasound (FUS), and stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) can help manage certain PD symptoms. While each may offer meaningful benefits, none is right for everyone. Register today to hear three leading experts discuss these procedures.  Click to Register.
