Brief Summary: This is a monocentric randomized controlled 2 arms interventional observer-blinded feasibility trial

Patients suffering from essential tremor ET will be treated with Deep Brain Stimulation DBS For the implantation of the DBS electrodes and the DBS system Activa INS Medtronic patients will randomized either to conventional stereotactic surgery of thalamicsubthalamic region with short anesthesia or to MR-tractography guided stereotactic surgery with target point of the dentato-rubro-thalamic bundle DRT in general anesthesia

Patients will visit the study center at screening baselineneurosurgery six and twelve months after neurosurgery
Detailed Description: In this monocentric randomized controlled 2 arms interventional observer-blinded feasibility trial patients suffering from therapy resistant essential tremor ET will be treated with Deep Brain Stimulation DBS

After screening eg obtaining informed consent assessment of inclusionexclusion criteria etc patients will be randomized to one of the following groups

Group 1 conventional

Conventional AC-PC based DBS implantation in the thalamicsubthalamic region Vim-cZI starting as awake surgery with a brief general anesthesia for stimulator implantation at the end of surgery

Group 2 tractographic

Magnetic resonance MR-tractography guided DBS implantation in the dentato-rubro-thalamic bundle DRT in general anesthesia

At the baselineneurosurgery visit Quality of Life QoL and other parameters will assessed Medtronics Activa INS DBS will be implanted according to randomization DBS will be started approximately one month after surgery and will be applied as per routine

Patients will have their routine visits For this trial data of the routine visits six and twelve months after neurosurgery will be collected

Patients receive DBS after the end of the trial according to local standards
