From the Back Cover
The third edition of this classic text again provides practical, comprehensive coverage of the anatomical and physiological basis for intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring. Written by a leading authority in the field, Dr. Aage Moller has updated this important title to again offer all the leading-edge knowledge needed to perform electrophysiological recordings in the operating room, to interpret the results, and to present the results to the surgeon. The field known as "intraoperative monitoring" has expanded rapidly to cover other uses of neurophysiology and electrophysiologic recordings during surgical operations that affect the brain, spinal cord, and other parts of the nervous system. These new areas are covered in this new edition. To better represent the content of the book and the field as it now stands, many of the chapters have been revised and new material has been added. While the general organization of the book is maintained, chapters such as monitoring of motor systems have been revised and extended with new material, including more detailed description of the anatomy and physiology of motor systems and new information about intraoperative monitoring.

Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring is written by a leading scholar in the field - Dr. Aage Moller. The third edition of this classic book published in 2010 again covers the comprehensive clinical, anatomical, and physiological knowledge on intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring. In addition, the third edition of the book addresses the major developments in intraoperative monitoring in neurosurgery with more detailed description of the anatomic and physiologic mechanisms and updated intraoperative monitoring information.Except the first chapter of the book, which provides the introduction and background knowledge of the field, this book is divided into six parts. Part I demonstrates the general principles and basis of intraoperative monitoring, the basic knowledge of the forms of electrical activity that can be recorded with different methods the practical discussion of recording evoked activity from nerves, nuclei, and fiber tracts, and a series of stimulus techniques. Part II reviews basic anatomic and physiologic knowledge and the monitoring of sensory systems including somatosensory, auditory, and visual systems. Part III focuses on motor system. It discusses thoroughly the anatomy and physiology of both the lateral and medial systems then focuses on practical aspects of monitoring the spinal motor and cranial motor systems. Part IV discusses the anatomy, physiology, and practical monitoring aspects of peripheral nerves. Part III and Part IV both includes a great portion of extended and newly added information, such as the monitoring of the spinal motor system, deep brain stimulation, as well as the peripheral nerves. Part V introduces the use of neurophysiology in the operating room discussing the methods to guide surgeons in operations. Part VI gives attention to practical aspects of intraoperative monitoring including a detailed description of the effect of anesthesia on neurophysiologic techniques in the operating room and solutions to reduce these effects The last two chapters of Part VI mention equipment and data analysis related to intraoperative monitoring and the importance of evaluation of the benefits to everybody in the operating room from the use of intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring.Intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring is essential in improving the quality of lives. It appears to me that it is especially important to discuss the influence of anesthesia on neurophysiologic monitoring in operations. Inappropriate anesthesia process may cause no-response during monitoring. The author suggests that the person who is responsible for monitoring should communicate with the anesthesiologist to obtain information regarding the type of anesthesia that is to be used, changes in the anesthesia during the operation, and drugs may be administered during the operation. Besides the suggestion on anesthesia, the practical suggestions throughout the whole book contain valuable information, which is obtained from the author's long-term clinical experience and intraoperative research. Therefore, this book can truly benefit neurologists, neurosurgeons, neurophysiologists, and those who want to have a thorough understanding of the anatomy, physiology, and monitoring of different neural systems. Therefore, this book is a valuable resource to neurosurgeons and neurologists involved in the intraoperative monitoring of patients with diverse neurosurgical conditions.
