ION course
Mirela Simon’s Courses on Intraoperative Neurophysiology- A State-of-the-Art Approach:
Virtual courses *NEW:
In-depth 2-day live virtual courses conducted via Zoom, designed to provide comprehensive training on featured ION procedures and processes. These courses are ideal for those seeking to master neurophysiologic mapping and monitoring independently, within their specific roles in the ION team. The first day’s sessions will thoroughly cover all building blocks for the course ION topic: key concepts, planning, designing, setting up, executing the procedure, and reliably interpreting its results. The knowledge gained on Day 1 will serve as a foundation for the clinical applications and processes explored on Day 2.

Overview:
Join us for a 4-day in- person comprehensive course on Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Mapping and Monitoring in the historic town of Sibiu, Transylvania, Romania.
This course is designed for physicians and technologists practicing intraoperative neurophysiology (ION) , i.e. intraoperative neurophysiologic mapping and monitoring, as well as surgeons from various specialties and anesthesiologists who are interested in incorporating ION in their own practice.
Key features:
A practical, hands-on approach emphasizing experiential learning through workshops, simulations, case presentations, and the integration of ION within surgical and anesthesia contexts. Multidisciplinary panel discussions will also be included.
Step-by-step instructions on methodologies, troubleshooting strategies, basic neurophysiologic principles and interpretation of recordings from simple to complex ION procedures. The course will include a thorough review of brain mapping techniques and their applications.
