The two International Symposia on Spinal Cord Monitoring, held in
Tokyo in 1981 [Homma S, Tamaki T (eds) (1984) Fundamentals and
clinical appli- cation of spinal cord monitoring. Saikon
Publishing, Tokyo] and Erlangen in 1984, were remarkable in that
they stimulated a gathering of electro- encephalographic,
neurophysiological, orthopaedic, neurosurgical, anaes- thetic and
pathological practitioners, presenting experimental, clinical and
surgical experiences. The factor held in common was an
understanding of the need to reduce the incidence and severity of
iatrogenic neurological im- pairment associated with certain
surgical and radiographic procedures. In the past there has been a
tendency for the study of human evoked poten- tials (EPs) to be
regarded as an end in itself, or at best a discipline which can be
of limited assistance in certain problems of neurological
diagnosis. Symposia such as these serve the valuable function of
opening electro- physiological eyes to the problems to which EP
techniques might usefully be devoted in other medical spheres. They
also help those who practise electrophysiology as an adjunct to
their speciality to comprehend such of the more complex properties
of EPs as are relevant to their particular interests. The title of
the Symposia and of this volume arose as a result of an his-
torical accident. The pioneers of intraoperative neuronal
monitoring were mostly surgeons specialising in the correction of
spinal deformities or the removal of tumours.
