Clinical neurophysiology is a medical speciality that studies the central and peripheral nervous systems through the recording of bioelectrical activity, whether spontaneous or stimulated.
In some countries it is a part of neurology, whereas in others (such as Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom and Finland, for example) it is an autonomous field.
Its main parts are:
- Electromyography and nerve conduction study (EMG/NCS)
- Electroencephalography
- Evoked potentials
- Polysomnography
- Intraoperative monitoring, also called IOM, Intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring, IONM, surgical neurophsyiology
