Methods: The monocular mfVEP in both eyes of 36 normal subjects (72 eyes) were tested with VERIS Science 4.0. The stimulus was the pattern reversal dart array consisted of 60 sectors each including 16 black-white reverse patterns. The visual stimulation was controlled by a binary pseudo-random m-sequence and subtended 25 degrees of retinal region. Results: The mfVEP patterns between left and right eyes of each subject were similar, and P1 latency and amplitude in correspondent visual field quadrants between left and right eyes had no significant difference(P>0.05). The latency of superotemporal visual field quadrant in right eyes was shorter than that of superonasal visual field quadrant in left eyes,and the amplitude of superonasal visual field quadrant in right eyes was longer than that of superotemporal visual field quadrant in left eyes(P<0.05). The P1 latency and amplitude among four visual field quadrants of each eye had significant difference(P<0.05). The P1 latency between the superonasal visual field quadrant and inferotemporal visual field quadrant or between the superonasal visual field quadrant and inferonasal quadrant visual field had significant differences in right or left eyes(P<0.05). Conclusion: The mfVEP of normal subjects exists retinal symmetry.展开更多

The diameter of the entire stimulating field was approximately 13.6 deg of arc; the frame rate of the monitor was 67 Hz. Every hexagon of the display contained a number of black and white small hexagonal patches which reversed during stimulation. These hexagons were simultaneously but independently modulated in time by the controlling computer program. The flashed elements were selected differently on each frame according to a computer-generated binary pseudo-random time series (m-sequence); the response contributions from each of the individual stimulus elements could be extracted from the cross corre-ation function. Subjects were asked to maintain fixation at the center of the stimulus pattern while each of the hexagons of the display reversed. The VERB system extracted the local responses by展开更多
