Reliability and precision of the mouse calyx of Held synapse.

2 Nov 2009 Traditionally, the calyx of Held synapse is viewed as a highly reliable relay in the sound localization circuit of the auditory brainstem, with every presynaptic action potential triggering a postsynaptic action potential in vivo. However, this view ... Read more...

Results of auditory brainstem response monitoring of microvascular decompression: a prospective study of 22 patients with hemifacial spasm.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: The nerve function of cranial nerve VIII is at risk during microvascular decompression (MVD) for hemifacial spasm. Intraoperative monitoring of auditory brainstem response (ABR) is a useful tool to decrease the danger of ... Read more...

Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in vestibular schwannoma surgery: advances and clinical implications.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECT: Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring has become an integral part of vestibular schwannoma surgery. The aim of this article was to review the different techniques of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in vestibular ... Read more...
