NEURODIAGNOSTIC TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM
Giving Individuals An Opportunity To Have A Solid Future Without The Cost
Overview A Neurodiagnostic Technologist (NDT) is a skilled allied Health Professional who records electrical activity arising from the brain, spinal cord, periph- eral nerves, somatosensory or motor nerve systems using a variety of tech- niques and
instruments. The most common neurodiagnostic procedures are: Electroencephalogram (EEG) : A recording of the electrical activity of the brain on a computer that utilizes specialized software. Polysomnography (PSG) : Records your brain waves, the oxygen level in your
blood, heart rate and breathing, as well as eye and leg movements during the study.
Long Monitoring (LTM) : Specialized EEG that is correlated with behavioral Activity
over prolonged periods of time to evaluate complicated seizures. Evoked Potentials (EP): an electrical response of the nervous system to specific stimuli used to assess function visual, auditory and somatosensory nerve pathways. Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) : a recording of electrical poten- tials from the peripheral nerves. By recording electrical patterns throughout these systems, NDT technologist provide valuable >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8
