This paper presents results from a pilot experiment in which the technique of velocity selective recording (VSR) was used to identify naturally occurring electroneurogram (ENG) signals within the intact nerve of a rat. Signals were acquired using a set of electrodes placed along the length of the nerve, formed from simple wire hooks. This basic form of recording has already been applied in-vivo to the analysis of electrically excited compound action potentials (CAPs) in both pig and frog, however, this method has never before been used to identify naturally occurring neural signals. Results in this paper highlight challenges which must be overcome in order for the transition to be made from electrically evoked potentials to naturally occurring signals.
本文介绍了一项初步实验的结果，该实验使用速度选择性记录（VSR）技术在大鼠完整神经内识别自然产生的神经电图（ENG）信号。信号是通过沿着神经长度放置的一组由简单金属丝钩构成的电极采集的。这种基本的记录形式已在体内应用于猪和青蛙电激发复合动作电位（CAP）的分析，然而，这种方法以前从未用于识别自然产生的神经信号。本文的结果突出了为从电诱发电位过渡到自然产生的信号必须克服的挑战。
