Abstract

Pattern-reversal and diffuse flash visual evoked potentials (VEPs) were obtained from 4 normal adults. A spatio-temporal dipole model was used to determine the location of the hypothetical equivalent dipoles consistent with the scalp distribution of the VEPs. Equivalent dipoles representing ERG and VEP activity were placed within 3-D magnetic resonance images of the brain. Most of the localization error appeared to be due to inadequate sampling of the potential field in frontal and occipital areas by the 10-20 system of electrode placement. Locating electrophysiologic dipoles within magnetic resonance images of brain structure allows evaluation of dipole localization techniques.
