Jude,
Morgan had an ABR and the new one, called SSEP (steady
state evoked potential.)  The SSEP is basically an
extension of the ABR.  It can just read a bigger
variety of frequencies than the ABR does.  Last spring
it was still "experimental" in that it was not
approved by whoever approves that stuff.  That seems
funny to me because they told me that the only thing
that was different from the ABR was the computer software.
