The source of 'paradoxical lateralization' of cortical evoked potentials to posterior tibial nerve stimulation. 1987

R P Lesser, and H Lüders, and D S Dinner, and J Hahn, and H Morris, and E Wyllie, and S Resor

We report the potentials elicited by posterior tibial nerve stimulation and recorded simultaneously from the scalp and from electrodes within the interhemispheric fissure. The primary cortical potential was recorded from cortex contralateral but from scalp ipsilateral to the stimulated nerve. The scalp recordings thus demonstrated "paradoxical lateralization" as reported previously, and the similar morphology of the scalp and contralateral cortical recordings confirm that this "paradoxical lateralization" is most likely the result of a horizontal dipole located within the interhemispheric fissure.

D002540 Cerebral Cortex The thin layer of GRAY MATTER on the surface of the CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES that develops from the TELENCEPHALON and folds into gyri and sulci. It reaches its highest development in humans and is responsible for intellectual faculties and higher mental functions.
