Default Somatosensory evoked response test?

So nice to see everyone again!

The neuro I saw last week has me scheduled for, among many other things, a somatosensory evoked response (SER) all 4 extremities -- he said he saw some sort of lesion on my MRI spine films that had not previously been picked up by others who reviewed the films and he wants to "explore this."

I've had EMGs/NCS -- bearable and sometimes downright unpleasant.

Any input on this test, and suggestions of what he might be looking for?

The reason for the test, as written on the form, says: "r/o myelitis" and "C-spine lesion."

Many thanks.
