Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute is proud to offer MRI-Guided Focused Ultrasound, an advanced procedure for patients living with essential tremor or Parkinson’s disease. In this video, Dr. Jan Hachmann, neurosurgeon at the Orlando Health Neuroscience Institute, shares how an innovative, incision-free therapy is transforming tremor treatment. Using focused ultrasound waves guided by advanced MRI technology, this breakthrough approach precisely targets the area of the brain responsible for tr

Scientists have developed a new type of CAR T-cell therapy that could finally take on stubborn solid tumors like brain and prostate cancer. Called EchoBack CAR T-cells, these immune cells are activated by short bursts of focused ultrasound, which helps them last longer, attack tumors more effectively, and avoid harming healthy tissue. Regular CAR T-cell therapy works well for some blood cancers but struggles with solid tumors because the cells often tire out, disappear too quickly, or mistakenly
