Intra Operative NeuroPhysiological Monitoring- IONM

New Book: Comments:: Interesting but ironic to confuse plasticity with that of degenerative changes....!!!.  Book Comments: I posted this recently on my LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6472238430750277632 Plasticity in the Nervous System in General or Brain in particular is mainly used to unravel the capacity of new growth such as neuritic or axonal growth after injury or other types of perturbations, furthermore it refers to new neurons formation such as in the case of Neurogenesis and also refers to behavioral recovery which is another form of neuroplasticity. Plasticity is the counteractive or reactive initiation of constructive growth process within the nervous system, either innate or induced. This process takes place in the nervous system due to an insult, injury or trauma, on the other hand, instead of growth (neuroplasticity) when the injury or trauma leads to pathological changes, it is referred into the field of degenerative changes or Neu

NeoSpine Performs First Spinal Stem Cell Injection Procedure in Washington NeoSpine is at the forefront of medicine by utilizing stem cells with the goal to regenerate and thus repair diseased spinal tissue. http://www.theintelligencer.com/article_f5e96e4d-bc96-57c3-a289-22e4def4e76e.html       St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) October 22, 2013   Two physicians from NeoSpine recently performed an innovative stem cell injection procedure on a patient’s spine to treat back pain caused by degenerative disc disease, the first one in the state of Washington. Dr. Richard Rooney and Dr. Kathy Wang, performed the successful pioneering procedure at Microsurgical Spine Center , the Northwest’s leading ambulatory surgery center located just outside of Seattle, Washington. At the forefront of medicine, stem cells use the body’s own healthy cells with the goal to regenerate to repair diseased spinal tissue. “With stem cell treatment, bone marrow is extracted from the patient’s pelvis bone and is
