Mechanisms underlying brain monitoring during anesthesia: limitations, possible improvements, and perspectives [PDF]
Currently, anesthesiologists use clinical parameters to directly measure the depth of anesthesia (DoA). This clinical standard of monitoring is often combined with brain monitoring for better assessment of the hypnotic component of anesthesia.

Intraoperative Brain Mapping by Cortico-Cortical Evoked Potential
To preserve postoperative brain function, it is important for neurosurgeons to fully understand the brain's structure, vasculature, and function. Intraoperative high-frequency electrical stimulation during awake craniotomy is the gold standard for ...
