Visual evoked potentials (VEP), brain stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP), somatosensory evoked potential (SEP), and long latency event related potentials (ERP) have been used to assess various aspects of the central nervous system. Multimodality evoked potential (MEP) testing uses a combination of these tests in the same clinical setting. In the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis and in the diagnosis of brain death, MEP testing has been shown to be more effective than any one evoked potential test used alone. In head trauma, MEP testing is an effective means of localization and prognostication. There are potential uses for MEP testing in Parkinson's Disease and uremia.
视觉诱发电位（VEP）、脑干听觉诱发电位（BAEP）、体感诱发电位（SEP）以及长潜伏期事件相关电位（ERP）已被用于评估中枢神经系统的各个方面。多模态诱发电位（MEP）测试在同一临床环境中结合使用这些测试。在多发性硬化症的诊断和脑死亡的诊断中，MEP测试已被证明比单独使用任何一种诱发电位测试更有效。在头部创伤中，MEP测试是定位和预后评估的有效手段。MEP测试在帕金森病和尿毒症中也有潜在用途。
