Figure 2 Representative cortical and spinal evoked potential responses to electrical stimulation in the rectum. Evoked potential (EP) responses demonstrated that the typical morphology for cortical and spinal EP recordings including an N1/P1 wave form that increased with stimulus intensity (threshold intensity, left panel; 2 × threshold intensity, right panel). Note the different scales for measuring the amplitude of EP response in the left panel (cortical, 5 μV/division; spinal, 20 μV/division) and right panel (cortical, 10 μV/division; spinal, 50 μV/division). Summary latency and amplitude results for recordings obtained using an electrical stimulus 1.5 × threshold is presented in Table 2.
