| somatosensory evoked potential | The computer-averaged cortical and subcortical responses to repetitive stimulation of peripheral nerve sensory fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| evoked potential | An event-related potential, elicited by, and time-lockied to a stimulus. See: evoked response. (05 Mar 2000) |
| evoked potentials | <physiology> The use of electrodes to measure the electrical activity of nerves. May be used as a guide during surgical removal of tumours growing around important nerves. (16 Dec 1997) |
| evoked potentials, auditory | The electric response evoked in the cerebral cortex by acoustic stimulation or stimulation of the auditory pathways. (12 Dec 1998) |
| evoked potentials, auditory, brainstem | Electrical waves in the cerebral cortex generated by brainstem structures in response to auditory click stimuli. These are found to be abnormal in many patients with cerebellopontine angle lesions, multiple sclerosis, or other demyelinating diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| evoked potentials, motor | The electrical response evoked in a muscle or motor nerve by electrical or magnetic stimulation. Common methods of stimulation are by transcranial electrical and transcranial magnetic stimulation. It is often used for monitoring during neurosurgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| evoked potentials, somatosensory | The electric response evoked in the cerebral cortex by stimulation of afferent pathways from peripheral nerves to cerebrum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| evoked potentials, visual | The electric response evoked in the cerebral cortex by visual stimulation or stimulation of the visual pathways. (12 Dec 1998) |
| evoked response | An alteration in the electrical activity of a region of the nervous system through which an incoming sensory stimulus is passing; may be somatosensory (SER), auditory (BAER), or visual (VER). See: evoked potential. (05 Mar 2000) |
| evoked response audiometry | A type of electrophysiologic audiometry in which electrical potentials of neural impulses from the cochlear nerve and various levels in the brain in response to acoustic stimulation are used to localise the site of a lesion causing a hearing loss. (05 Mar 2000) |
