Abstract
In awake immobilized cats, stimulation of nonspecific thalamic nuclei (NCM, DM) elicits evoked potentials in the head of the caudate nucleus (CN). The evoked potentials (EP) in the ventral part of CN are opposite in sign to those recorded in the dorsal region of CN. The points of polarity reversal are grouped in the lower third of CN. Peripheral sensory stimuli (somatic and visual) evoked potentials with a 20 msec latency. These evoked potentials change their polarity in the same region as the thalamic evoked responses. Visual and somatic responding areas overlap widely. The advantage of bipolar recordings for better localization is discussed.
