Human magnetic auditory evoked fields.
Abstract
Magnetoencephalographic (MEG) averaged auditory evoked fields to click stimuli (N = 512) were recorded from four human subjects. The MEG was recorded with an asymmetric second derivative SQUID gradiometer located in an aluminum shielded room. Unlike conventional EEG auditory evoked potentials, which have a widespread distribution, evoked magnetic fields appear to be localized to the general area of the primary auditory cortex and diminish rapidly in amplitude as the gradiometer is moved away in any direction.
