Course Objective and Content
| Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to inform the students who are going to be electroneurophysiology technicians on the evoked potentials, its principles of functioning, the areas that EPs are being used and to show them the usage of EPs on daily clinical practices. |
| Course Content: | Recognize the working principles of the evoked potential device • Emphasize the importance of neurological diseases • Emphasize the importance of evoked potentials in postoperative monitoring • To learn the importance of evoked potentials in multiple sclerosis • To learn the location of evoked potential neurons in spinal diseases |
