A novel technique uses a Schottky barrier photodetector to record abnormal movements of the arms in diseases of the nervous system. The method transduces displacement of the freely moving limbs, producing recordings that readily relate to clinical observation and provide quantification. This article gives examples of the use of the technique for examining ataxia in finger-to-nose testing, tremor, and cog-wheel phenomena in common neurological conditions.
一种新技术利用肖特基势垒光电探测器记录神经系统疾病中手臂的异常运动。该方法可转换自由移动肢体的位移,生成易于与临床观察相关联并能提供量化数据的记录。本文给出了该技术在检查指鼻试验中的共济失调、常见神经疾病中的震颤和齿轮现象时的应用示例。
