  1. A roadmap of the spine During spinal cord surgery, intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is used to reduce the risk of damage. Electrodes on muscles or scalp record the response to large-amplitude electrical stimuli delivered to the spinal cord. However, this method does not allow precise spatiotemporal characterization of spinal cord neurophysiology. Now, Russman et al. developed a microelectrode array that can be placed on the spinal cord during surgery and record with high spatiotemporal definition and high sensitivity the electrophysiological response to low-current stimulation, providing precise maps of spinal cord electrophysiology. These maps can be used during surgery to improve IONM.
