中枢神经学是探索人类或动物模型的神经系统如何发育、 组织管理、和产生行为等功能的科学。Tools 可作为研究解剖学、生理学、生物化学、或神经和神经组织分子生物学的有力工具。(摘自神经科学第四版第一页)

神经细胞,或神经元,组成神经通路从而接收、处理和传输神经电和化学信号。 电生理记录仪可通过在感兴趣的神经细胞附近放置电极监测这些神经通路的电活动。主要参数如下:

  • 单个神经元动作电位 (峰值)
  • 潜在低频区域(LFP)
  • 脑电(EEG)或脑电波
  • 肌电(EMG) 或肌肉活跃度
  • 眼电 (EOG)或 眼球运动
  • 外周交感神经活动 (SNA)
  • 活跃期/镇静期
  • 行为学

通过监测神经通路的电活动,可获取大量信息,帮助了解神经系统功能、寻求多种神经或精神系统疾病的预防或治疗方案比如:睡眠状况、癫痫或癫痫症、创伤性脑损伤、行为学、神经退行性疾病等
