Core Tip	Recently, many surgeons have used intra-operative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) in spinal surgery to reduce the incidence of postoperative neurological complications, including level of the spinal cord, cauda equina and nerve root. Several established technologies are available and multimodality combina-tions are considered necessary for practical and effective IOM. Spinal surgeons should understand the concept of the monitoring techniques and interpret monitoring records adequately to use IOM for the decision making during the surgery for safe surgery and a favorable surgical outcome. In this review, the authors will review the different IOM techniques to provide a fundamental concept for better comprehension.
