ABSTRACT
The intensity dependence of the 100 msec magnetic field signal evoked by contralateral application of a tone burst stimulus has been examined for both hemispheres and for a number of frequencies. In all cases the component of the magnetic field normal to the skull was measured; in some cases this component was oriented in the outward direction (group 1 and some group 2 subjects), in the other cases in the inward direction (group 2). The experimental results were analysed in terms of an equivalent current dipole model. The analysis gave rise to the introduction of a transit time (tau 0 approximately 60 msec) from the onset of the stimulus to the activation of the current dipole and to the introduction of a functional relationship between the dipole moment and a 'reduced' intensity, and between the latency and the 'reduced' intensity. Further, the reproducibility of the signal was verified.
