Neurodiagnostic Technology was formerly known as Electroneurodiagnostic Technology (EDT). Students who started in the EDT program should follow that Program Planning Guide and not the updated guide for NDT.
Neurodiagnostic Technology (NDT) is the scientific field devoted to the recording and study of the electrical activity of the brain and nervous system. Technologists record electrical activity arising from the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, somatosensory or motor nerve systems using a variety of techniques and instruments.
