Gowlett Peaks [SEP] continent
Gowlett Peaks
The Gowlett Peaks () are a small group of isolated peaks, consisting of tall, sharp twin peaks and two close outliers, about northeast of the Anare Nunataks in Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. They were sighted in November 1955 by an Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions party led by John Béchervaise, and were named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia for Alan Gowlett, an engineer at Mawson Station in 1955.
intervention before impairment becomes permanent. Testing with median nerve SEPs is used to identify the sensory and motor cortex during craniotomies and in monitoring surgery at the midcervical or upper cervical levels. Posterior tibial nerve SEP monitoring is widely used for monitoring the spinal cord during scoliosis procedures and other surgical interventions in which the spinal cord is at risk for damage. Recording of far field intracranially generated peaks can facilitate monitoring even when the primary cortical peaks are impaired due to anesthetic agents. Over time, SEP testing and monitoring in surgery have become standard
