Overview

Motor Evoked Potentials (MEPs) are electrical signals generated in response to stimulation of the nervous system. They provide valuable information about the function of the motor cortex, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. MEPs are used to assess the integrity of the nervous system and can be used to diagnose diseases, monitor the effects of treatments, predict outcomes, and monitor progress of recovery after a stroke or brain injury. By providing a noninvasive measure of neuronal conduction in the motor cortex, MEPs can offer valuable insight into neurological conditions, as well as a greater understanding of the pathophysiology and treatment of neurological disorders.
