Abstract

Evoked potentials are commonly used in neurology but standardized protocols have to be carried out during both application and evaluation. Otherwise adequacy and reliability might be questioned, which is unacceptable in evidence-based modern science. Both motor and somatosensory evoked potential studies can only be interpreted as a neurophysiologic measure in cord lesions if applied irreproachably.
