Tremor is intimately linked to the numerous interactions of the
central and peripheral nervous system components tuning motor
control, from the cerebral cortex up to the peripheral effectors.
Activities of central generators, reflex loop delays, inertia,
stiffness and damping are all factors influencing features of
tremor. This book discusses the pathophysiology of tremor including
membrane mechanisms and rodent models, the advances in genetics and
the musculoskeletal models pertinent to body oscillations. The main
forms of tremor encountered during clinical practice are
considered, taking into account neuroimaging aspects. The book
covers recent advances in methodologies and techniques of
assessment, and provides practical informations for the daily
management. In addition to pharmacological treatments,
neurosurgical approaches such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and
thalamotomy are discussed. Emerging techniques under development
are also introduced. Future challenges are also presented.
