    Functional correlates between the rat electroretinogram and visual evoked potential
    Tsai, Tina I-ting ( 2012)
    The ERG and VEP are sequentially-activated responses, widely used for diagnosis of eye and brain diseases. Measuring both simultaneously provides additional information to help localise where in the visual pathway injury has occurred. This thesis shows how retinal information streams are encoded in the VEP. In addition, it shows that changes to ERG components can predict the amount of loss downstream in the retina. However, retinal loss may not predict VEP changes.
