title: Auditory evoked potentials and magnetic fields in patients with lesions of the auditory cortex.
abstract: Auditory evoked potentials and magnetic fields of 40-200 ms latencies were measured from 4 patients with temporal lobe infarcts and compared with results from healthy subjects. Magnetic fields over the diseased hemisphere were abnormal in all 4; the responses were missing in 2. In one patient the responses were of abnormally high amplitude, and in one parts of the response sequence were missing. Evoked potentials were also abnormal in all 4 patients and the results were in accordance with the findings in the magnetic field measurements.
