Invoked potentials (PD)

Information

for the examination

Basic elements:

  • The evoked potentials record the brain’s response to external stimuli , which can be optically, acoustically, or somatoesthetically .
  • They measure the electrical signals of the brain , which are produced by sight, hearing, or touch.
  • most applied methods of induced potentials are the folowing:
    • Optically provoked dynamics
    • Headphones provoked dynamics
    • Body aesthetics provoked dynamics

When does one need to seek the help of a specialist? Symptoms - diseases

The neurologist depending on the clinical condition of the patient, will recommend the performance of the specific outpatient examination.

  • The evoked potentials used in the diagnosis of neurological conditions
  • A small number of electrodes are placed with a special cream, on the scalp or back of the examinee
  • Electrodes measure the electrical activity of the brain , as a response to various stimuli
