Abstract:
Intra-operative neurophysiologic monitoring is here to stay. Future improvements of technique will allow neurophysiologists to monitor many brain and CN functions not reliably monitored at present. It is expected that such monitoring will become a routine part of all complex neurosurgical operations, despite the current pressure to reduce the cost of health care.
