    Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is central in treating tremor syndromes.

  • 2

    Lesioning techniques are becoming more popular due to their minimally invasive nature.

  • 3

    Treatment selection depends on the type of tremor and patient preferences.

  • 4

    DBS allows for adjustment of settings over time; lesioning does not.

  • 5
