Patients with drug-resistant essential tremor (ET) may undergo Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgical thalamotomy (SRS-T), where the ventro-intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (Vim) is lesioned by focused beams of gamma radiations to induce clinical improvement. Here, we studied SRS-T impacts on left Vim dynamic functional connectivity (dFC, n = 23 ET patients scanned before and 1 year after intervention), and on surface-based morphometric brain features (n = 34 patients, including those from dFC analysis). In matched healthy controls (HCs), three dFC states were extracted from resting-state functional MRI data. In ET patients, state 1 spatial stability increased upon SRS-T (F-1,F-22 = 19.13, p = 0.004). More frequent expression of state 3 over state 1 before SRS-T correlated with greater clinical recovery in a way that depended on the MR signature volume (t(6) = 4.6, p = 0.004). Lower pre-intervention spatial variability in state 3 expression also did (t(6 )= - 4.24, p = 0.005) and interacted with the presence of familial ET so that these patients improved less (t(6) = 4.14, p = 0.006). ET morphometric profiles showed significantly lower similarity to HCs in 13 regions upon SRS-T (z <= - 3.66, p <= 0.022), and a joint analysis revealed that before thalamotomy, morphometric similarity and states 2/3 mean spatial similarity to HCs were anticorrelated, a relationship that disappeared upon SRS-T (z >= 4.39, p < 0.001). Our results show that left Vim functional dynamics directly relates to upper limb tremor lowering upon intervention, while morphometry instead has a supporting role in reshaping such dynamics.
