Motor root conduction time(MRCT) was calculated by combining the magnetic stimulatiou eliciting motor evoked poentials (MEP)in lumbosacral region with F wave in popliteal rossa.Motor nerve conduction time(MNCT)and MRCT were calculated reliably from the tibialis and the soleal MEPS in 40 patients suffering from L5 or S1 radlculopathies owing to disc protrusion,and in 50 healthy controls.Meanwhile,corticals somatosensory evoked potentials(SEP)were recorded by segmental cutaneous nerve stimulation for comparison.The results showed that no differences were seen in MNCT in all patients,but MRCT was markedly prolonged in 85%or the patients,which was higher than the prolongation of SEP in 45% or the patients.It is concluded that magnetic stimulation of MEP is a useful technique ror non-invasive diagnosis of lumbosacral radlculopathies.
