To study components related to parallel processing of information across the visual field, multi-focal pattern reversal visual evoked potentials (VEPs) were recorded using binary m-sequences. Contrast, chromatic, spatial and temporal characteristics of the stimuli were varied in order to favor contributions from either M or P pathways. Responses were decomposed into two additive components whos...

It has been argued that the development and aging of the different achromatic and chromatic visual pathways may proceed independently. We review here the evidence for such independent changes with particular emphasis on electrophysiological results. Changes in chromatic and achromatic visual processing throughout the life span were studied using visual evoked potentials (VEPs). VEPs were record...

OBJECTIVES We report the results of the visual evoked potentials (VEP) examination in patients after severe poisoning by methanol. MATERIAL AND METHODS The group of 47 patients (38 males and 9 females) was assembled out of persons who survived an outbreak of poisoning by the methanol adulterated alcohol beverages, which happened in the Czech Republic in 2012-2013. The visual evoked potentials...

The effects of 10%, 30% and 50% nitrous oxide on visual, auditory and somatosensory evoked potentials were studied in seven healthy volunteers. The evoked potentials were averaged from the electroencephalogram following repeated peripheral sensory stimulation of the appropriate modality. Latencies and amplitudes of the resulting potentials were measured and compared with control values. In five...
