Description and Table of Contents

Description

This overview of recent advances in spinal cord monitoring and electrodiagnosis serves three objectives. It provides an understanding of spinal cord neurophysiology and neuropharmacology, which may lead to a new method to study basic human spinal cord function; it examines information vital for the prevention of spinal cord damage during spine or spinal cord surgery, and it also gives insight into electrodiagnosis of spinal cord diseases. The basic topics covered are: spinal cord physiology and pharmacology; the pathophysiology of spinal cord (compression and ischemic) injuries; spinal cord evoked potentials in response to electrical and magnetic stimulations; recording techniques of spinal cord evoked potentials; spinal cord monitoring during surgery, and electrodiagnosis of spinal cord diseases.
