D. Krieger et Rj. Sclabassi, NEUROPHYSIOLOGIC ASSESSMENT IN THE MANAGEMENT OF SPINAL DYSRAPHISM, Neurosurgery clinics of North America, 6(2), 1995, pp. 219-230
Neurophysiological measures provide reliable and sensitive methods for
assessing both ascending and descending function in the pediatric spi
nal cord in the diagnostic laboratory and the operating room. Each neu
rophysiological measure is discussed with regard to the following: wha
t is its anatomical basis, what is its value when applied to diagnosis
, what is its value when applied to intraoperative monitoring, and how
is each neurophysiological measure obtained.
