A method for processing a neural measurement obtained in the presence of artifact, in order to detect whether a neural response is present in the neural measurement. A neural measurement is obtained from one or more sense electrodes. The neural measurement is correlated against a filter template, the filter template comprising at least three half cycles of an alternating wave-form, amplitude modulated by a window. From an output of the correlating, it is determined whether a neural response is present in the neural measurement.
