== == The specialist that performs a Sleep Test is called a Polysomnographer. Some are registered and some are not. Once the data is gathered, the test is then scored by either the same technician or one that specifically does scoring. Once the scoring is completed it is normally interpreted by a Physician to confirm the results and make a diagnosis and recommendations.
