About this journal

Aims and scope

The Neurodiagnostic Journal is the official journal of ASET - The Neurodiagnostic Society. It serves as an educational resource for Neurodiagnostic professionals, a vehicle for introducing new techniques and innovative technologies in the field, patient safety and advocacy, and an avenue for sharing best practices within the Neurodiagnostic Technology profession. The journal features original articles about electroencephalography (EEG), evoked potentials (EP), intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM), nerve conduction (NC), polysomnography (PSG), autonomic testing, and long-term monitoring (LTM) in the intensive care (ICU) and epilepsy monitoring units (EMU). Subject matter also includes education, training, lab management, legislative and licensure needs, guidelines for standards of care, and the impact of our profession in healthcare and society. The journal seeks to foster ideas, commentary, and news from technologists, physicians, clinicians, managers/leaders, and professional organizations, and to introduce trends and the latest developments in the field of neurodiagnostics. Media reviews, case studies, ASET Annual Conference proceedings, review articles, and quizzes for ASET-CEUs are also published in The Neurodiagnostic Journal.

The core strength of ASET is the talent and experience of its members, and the Editorial Board seeks to showcase that strength in each issue of The Neurodiagnostic Journal. We invite your input, participation, and contribution to the journal so we can continue to provide an invaluable educational resource for our professional community.
