ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY THAT OCCURS IN RESPONSE TO EXTERNAL STIMULI IS
MEASURED BY
A SCALP RECORDED EEG
B EVOKED POTENTIALS
C EXTERNAL POTENTIAL
D MEMBRANE POTENTIAL
B EVOKED POTENTIALS
(EP) EVOKED POTENTIALS
AN ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL RECORDED IN RESPONSE TO AN EXTERNAL
STIMULUS: VISUAL, AUDITORY, OR SOMATOSENSORY
FAR FIELD POTENTIAL IS DEFINED AS
A POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM THE SURFACE ELECTRODE
B POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM DEPTH ELECTRODE
C POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM NEARBY GENERATOR SOURCE
D POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM DISTANT SOURCE
D POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM DISTANT SOURCE.
(FFP) FAR FIELD POTENTIAL
THE SCALP ELECTRODES DETECTED THE POTENTIALS THAT WERE
GENERATED AT A DISTANCE THUS THE TERM "FAR FIELD POTENTIAL" WAS
INTRODUCED.
ALL OF THE FOLLOWING TESTS REFLECT BRAIN FUNCTION EXCEPT
A EEG
,B PET SCAN
C SPECT
D CT SCAN
D CT SCAN
CT SCAN VS EEG
THE EEG PRIMARILY REFLECTS BRAIN FUNCTION WHILE CT REPRESENTS
ANATOMICAL BRAIN STRUCTURES.
