Evoked Potentials in Diagnosis of Demyelinating Diseases

Sa？etak Evoked potentials (EPs) represent a method of choice in the diagnosis of sensory disturbances, namely vision, hearing, somatosensory and cognitive disorders. It provides an objective overview of sensory functions. This is a non-invasive method that can be repeated frequently, and the results of the recordings can be compared over a period of time. Demyelinating diseases show a wide range of symptoms with frequent sensory deficits. EPs are intended to objectify sensory deficits reported by patients. Given the diversity of sensory deficits and the EP findings, this method is valuable for the differential diagnosis of demyelinating diseases
