purpose: to determine the clinical and paraclinical features of multiple sclerosis (ms) in patients presenting for the first time with optic neuritis. methods:  in this descriptive study, 35 patients with clinical evidence of optic neuritis were enrolled. our evaluation included a neurological examination, visual evoked potentials (vep), brainstem-auditory evoked potentials (baep), and brain mr...

Abstract Background: Opium-dependence having different effects on the nervous system is a common problem, especially in the Middle East and Iran. The aim of this study is evaluating the effects of opium-dependence on visual evoked potential (VEP) in men. Methods: Thirty subjects with both chronic cigarette smoking and opium-dependence (group 1) and 30 subjects with only chronic ciga...

The objective of this study is development of driver’s sleepiness using Visually Evoked Potentials (VEP). VEP computed from EEG signals from the visual cortex. We use the Steady State VEPs (SSVEPs) that are one of the most important EEG signals used in human computer interface systems. SSVEP is a response to visual stimuli presented. We present a classification method to discriminate between...

background and objective: vep is a powerful method to study visual system via evaluating evoked potentials. technologic and instrumental restrictions may be the reason of having studies on optical modulation and induction such as color, spatial frequency and contrast. developments of computer software and hardware may lead to an increase in the flexibility of pattern designs. material and meth...

Introduction: Brain visual evoked potential (VEP) signals are commonly known to be accompanied by high levels of background noise typically from the spontaneous background brain activity of electroencephalography (EEG) signals. Material and Methods: A model based on dyadic filter bank, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), and singular value decomposition (SVD) was developed to analyze the raw data...

The term visually evoked potential (VEP) refer to electrical potentials, initiated by brief visual stimuli, which are recorded from the scalp overlying visual cortex, VEP waveforms are extracted from the electro-encephalogram (EEG) by signal averaging. VEPs are used primarily to measure the functional integrity of the visual pathways from retina via the optic nerves to the visual cortex of the ...

The paper presents the use of visual evoked potentials VEP to objective assessment acuity. Methods using (VEP) rely on changes electrical action generated within cortex. To diagnose degree weakening eyesight a series studies healthy people and visually impaired ones were made. Electrophysiological eye, noninvasive examination allow gives objectivity in acuity what may be very important ophthalm...

Background: Alzheimer dementia as the most common cause of dementia is a chronic, progressive, irreversible and incurable disease. The second most common cause of dementia after Alzheimer is vascular dementia. One of the systems involved in dementia is the visuospatial system and visual evoked potential (VEP) can be one of the diagnostic methods for this disease. Therefore, the present study ai...
