Human Evoked Potentials

Part of the book series: NATO Conference Series ((HF,volume 9))

Abstract

Finkenzeller (1966) and Allison and Goff (1967), in studying the olfactory system, succeeded in finding olfactory evoked potentials (OEPs) on the intact skull of awake humans. Partly due to the technical difficulties associated with olfactory stimulation, however, there has been little subsequent progress in this area.
