Abstract
Intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring (IONM) provides valuable adjunctive information to the surgical team, enhancing their understanding of the patient’s anatomy with the goal of improving patient outcomes and reducing complications. This chapter discusses the roles of specific IONM modalities in minimally invasive spine surgery. The role of IONM in the placement of percutaneous pedicle screws and the far lateral approach to the lumbar spine are described.
