Small area hyperthermia is used to selectively increase cerebellar activity, and, as shown by electroencephalographic tracings of sensorimotor area, focal cerebellar hyperthermia with temperatures limited between 39.5 degrees and 41 degrees C effectively reduces the duration of electrically induced afterdischarges. Additional observations on paroxysms induced in the caudate nucleus which involve the sensorimotor area indicate that these also show shortened durations during focal cerebellar hyperthermia. A comparison of effects on these two forebrain structures is given and some similarities are noted between these results and those reported from previous studies in which electrical stimuli were applied directly to the cerebellar cortex.
小面积热疗用于选择性增加小脑活动，并且，如感觉运动区的脑电图描记所示，温度限制在39.5摄氏度至41摄氏度之间的局灶性小脑热疗可有效缩短电诱发后放电的持续时间。对涉及感觉运动区的尾状核诱发的阵发的进一步观察表明，在局灶性小脑热疗期间，这些阵发的持续时间也会缩短。给出了对这两个前脑结构的影响比较，并指出这些结果与先前研究中直接将电刺激应用于小脑皮质的结果之间存在一些相似之处。
