Neural Monitoring The Prevention of Intraoperative Injury

The symposium from which this book originates represents a sig­ nificant watershed in the field of intraoperative neural monitoring, since the participants concluded that electrophysiologic monitoring techniques should be considered a "standard of care" for surgical pro­ cedures that place...
