Introduction to Neurophysiology is the first of its kind written by students for students about the benefits of basic and advance neurophysiological monitoring techniques. Various neurophysiological tests are used routinely for diagnostic, prognostic, therapeutic, and intraoperative monitoring purposes.

This book's chapters discuss the benefits of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) in various surgical procedures, including spine, cranial nerve, vascular, and brain surgeries. In addition, there are introductory chapters on the human nervous system, basic instrumentation in neurophysiology, and the effect of anesthesia on IONM data.
