The results of the test for afterimages ('flight of colours'; FOC) in healthy controls, MS patients and persons with a history of retrobulbar neuritis are presented. The FOC proved to be a reliable test of involvement of the visual system in these diseases. This concerns the duration of the afterimages as well as the palette of colours. The results were in accordance with those of the VEP, provided patients with a retrobulbar neuritis more than three years ago were omitted. In these persons the FOC proved to be more sensitive than the flash-VEP in detecting old lesions. It was concluded that these methods measure different aspects of the visual system.
本文展示了对健康对照者、多发性硬化症（MS）患者以及有球后视神经炎病史者的后像测试（“色彩漂移”；FOC）结果。FOC被证明是检测这些疾病中视觉系统受累情况的可靠测试。这涉及后像的持续时间以及色彩范围。如果排除三年多以前患球后视神经炎的患者，结果与视觉诱发电位（VEP）的结果一致。在这些人中，FOC在检测陈旧性病变方面比闪光VEP更敏感。得出的结论是，这些方法测量的是视觉系统的不同方面。
