What conditions can SEPs help diagnose in children?
SEPs can be instrumental in diagnosing a variety of pediatric conditions. These include:
1. Cerebral Palsy: SEPs can help assess the extent of sensory pathway damage. 2. Spinal Cord Injuries: They can determine the level and severity of injury. 3. Multiple Sclerosis: SEPs can detect demyelination in sensory pathways. 4. Peripheral Neuropathies: These can be identified and monitored using SEPs. 5. Congenital Anomalies: Conditions like spina bifida can be evaluated for sensory pathway involvement.
