Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IONM)

"I do not perform cervical spine procedures or spinal cord resections without being monitored by a clinical neurophysiologist. IONM has saved countless lives by detecting fatal complications that were not previously mentioned  in medical literature."

Prof.Dr. Mohamed Hafez

Chairman of Neurosurgery Department

Cairo University 

&

Adjunct Professor of Neurosurgery at the University of Pittsburg USA

"IONM during spine surgery is an indespensible safety net.  Performing spine surgery without IONM is simply unacceptable!"

Prof. Dr. Hossam Salah

Professor of Orthopedic and Spine Surgery

"Performing brain and spine surgeries is like piloting a Jumbo plane. During these surgeries IONM serves as the gadgets which enable a pilot to manoeuvre the plane safely during takeoff, flight, and landing."

Prof. Dr. Amr El Samman

Professor of Neurosurgery

Cairo University

"Since I began utilizing IONM during scoliosis surgeries & spinal cord tumor resections, the incidents of injury to the motor and/or sensory pathways have been significantly reduced. The presence of the clinical neurophysiologist during surgery encouraged me to undertake severe spine deformity cases which I would not risk otherwise."
