DIPOLE LOCALIZATION ALLOWS ONE TO
A FIND THE SOURCE OF POTENTIAL GENERATOR
B DETECT THE ACTION POTENTIAL
C RECORD THE FAR FIELD POTENTIAL
D CREATE THE NEAR FIELD POTENTIAL - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>A FIND THE
SOURCE OF POTENTIAL GENERATOR

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 - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>B EVOKED POTENTIALS

(EP) EVOKED POTENTIALS - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>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 - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>D
POTENTIAL RECORDED FROM DISTANT SOURCE.

,(FFP) FAR FIELD POTENTIAL - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>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 - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>D CT SCAN

CT SCAN VS EEG - CORRECT ANSWER>>>>THE EEG PRIMARILY REFLECTS
BRAIN FUNCTION WHILE CT REPRESENTS ANATOMICAL BRAIN STRUCTURES.
