Abstract |
One technique used for short-latency somatosensory evoked response (SER) is described. SER following nerve stimulation is a unique non-invasive, clinical test used to evaluate the somatosensory pathways. It tests the physiological function of the median nerve, the brachial plexus, the C6-7 cervical roots, cervical spinal cord, the cuneate nuclei, the medial lemniscus, the thalamus, and the contralateral sensory cortex. It has been shown to be a reliable and useful clinical test particularly in multiple sclerosis and comatose patients. The promising technique of SER following peroneal nerve stimulation is mentioned. |
