Young Kook Kim, Young Hwan Kim, Young Sook Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(9):1219-1226.   Published online September 15, 1997
Purpose : The visual evoked potentials(VEPs) offer a window both on visual system function and on cerebral or neurologic function. The study was performed to evaluate the maturation of VEP in preterm infants and to present a guide to detect high risk neonates who can develop neurodevelopmental abnormalities. Methods : The VEPs were recorded in response to binocular stimulus with light-emitting diode goggles. VEP recordings...
