摘要
In order to evaluate the usefulness of SEP with cutaneous nerve stimulation in lumbosacral radiculopathy, we investigated 19 patients by EMG including H-reflex and SEP. All patients had radiculopathy proven by myelography and/or CT scan and, if indicated, operative treatment. The findings by EMG and SEP were compared with operative and radiological findings. In this preliminary study. SEP was as sensitive as EMG in detecting lumbosacral radiculopathy. Further investigation seems justified.
