Practical Guid for Clinical
Neurophysiologic Testing- CLTM study
Guide
Richard Caton - Correct Answers -Who was the first person to record electrical activity
in the animal brain 1875?
Hans Berger - Correct Answers -Who was the first person to describe electrical activity
in a human brain 1929
far-field potentials - Correct Answers -EEG signals recorded in attenuated form at the
scalp because they originate far away - for example, in the brain stem
dipole localization - Correct Answers -finds the source of the potential generator
magnetoencephalography - Correct Answers -measures the magnetic fields created by
current flow
CT scan - Correct Answers -Test that does not reflect brain function
EEG - Correct Answers -Which test is a test of brain function (rather than brain
anatomical structure)?
1929 - Correct Answers -What year was the first human EEG record published?
1875 - Correct Answers -What year was the first animal EEG record published?
Evoked potentials - Correct Answers -Electrical activity that occurs in response to
external stimulus
George Dawson - Correct Answers -Who was the first to record the brain electrical
response after sensory stimulation (evoked potential)?
