Modified method for recording cortical and subcortical visually evoked potentials in the conscious rabbit with chronically implanted electrodes. 1975

P R Bock, and B W Pollock, and A M Fuchs, and D von Schmude

A modified stereotaxic surgical and implantation technique for animal EEG studies in rabbits is described. The use of a stereotaxic "socklet unit" with a minimum of operational equipment, high accuracy, simple handling, and good tissue compatibility permits the repetition of EEG studies in the same animal with a large number of electrodes and over a period of several months. For example for this technique an experimental arrangement for recording visually evoked potentials is described. The importance of a careful selection of the experimental animals, of maintaining constant test conditions, and of the selecting of test parameters as a prerequisite for assessing induced alterations is emphasized and discussed.

D007034 Hypothalamus, Posterior The part of the hypothalamus posterior to the middle region consisting of several nuclei including the medial maxillary nucleus, lateral mammillary nucleus, and posterior hypothalamic nucleus (posterior hypothalamic area). The posterior hypothalamic area is concerned with control of sympathetic responses and is sensitive to conditions of decreasing temperature and controls the mechanisms for the conservation and increased production of heat.

D005071 Evoked Potentials Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.
