Preface This book is based on three earlier books: Aage R. Møller: Evoked Potentials in Intraoperative Monitoring published in 1988 by Williams and Wilkens; and more directly by Aage R. Møller: Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring published in 1995 by Gordon and Breach under the imprint of Harwood Academic Publishers. This was followed by a Second Edition, published in 2006 by Humana Press. While the general organization of the book is preserved, the Third Edition of the book represents an expansion and extensive rewriting of the 2006 book. In particular, the coverage related to the monitoring of the spinal motor system and deep brain stimulation has been extended and new parts have been added. The description of the anatomical and physiological basis for these techniques has been largely rewritten, and many practical aspects of such monitoring have been added. The section on blood supply to the spinal cord has been extended. The chapters on peripheral nerves have been updated and extended. Anesthesia is now covered in more detail. Chapters on monitoring of sensory systems and monitoring in skull base surgery have also been revised. The section on techniques used in the operating room is also updated and many parts have been rewritten. T
