Somatosensory-evoked potentials in the diagnosis of lacunar syndromes: comparison with EEG findings.
Somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEPs) and EEG were recorded in 45 patients with lacunar syndrome due to CT-verified lacunar infarcts. Abnormalities of SEP chronological parameters were observed in 22 subjects. SEP changes occurred independently of clinical features and were related more to the lesion location than to its size.
