Brief Summary
Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Staged Bilateral Exablate Ablation of the Pallidothalamic Tract (PTT) for the Treatment of the Motor Complications of Parkinson's Disease (PD).
Detailed Description
This study is a prospective, open label, single-arm, multi-center clinical trial to establish the safety and effectiveness of bilateral PTTractotomy for the treatment of motor complications in patient...

- Subject is able to communicate sensations during the Exablate procedure.
Exclusion
- Subject where there is suspicion that Parkinsonian symptoms are a side effect from neuroleptic medications.

- Subject is receiving anticoagulant (e.g., warfarin) or antiplatelet (e.g., aspirin) therapy within one week of focused ultrasound procedure or drugs known to increase risk or hemorrhage (e.g., Avastin) within one month of focused ultrasound procedure.
- Subject with severely impaired renal function with estimated glomerular filtration rate \<30 mL/min/1.73m2 (or per local standards should that be more restrictive) and/or who is on dialysis.
- Subjects with a history of seizures within the past year.
- Subject with an intracranial brain tumor
- Subjects with life-threatening systemic disease that include and not limited to the following will be excluded from the study participation: HIV, liver failure, blood dyscrasias, etc.
- Any illness that in the investigator's opinion preclude participation in this study.
