In 20 subjects, we stimulated the mental nerve through needle electrodes inserted into the homonymous foramen; recording electrodes were placed on the scalp and along the jaw. Within the 1st 5 msec after the stimulus we recorded 4 constant waves, thought to reflect the afferent activity from the mandibular nerve up to the trigeminal nuclei. These waves have similar characteristics and the same high degree of reliability as those obtained after stimulation of the infraorbital and supraorbital nerves; therefore, they should be a useful complement for a complete exploration of trigeminal nerve function.
在20名受试者中,我们通过插入同名孔的针电极刺激颏神经;记录电极置于头皮和下颌沿线。在刺激后的最初5毫秒内,我们记录到4个恒定波,认为它们反映了从下颌神经到三叉神经核的传入活动。这些波具有与眶下神经和眶上神经刺激后所获得的波相似的特征和相同的高可靠性;因此,它们应是全面探索三叉神经功能的有益补充。
