The effects of cold-induced brain edema and white-matter ischemia on the somatosensory evoked response

Abstract
The electrophysiological effects of cold-lesion edema and white-matter ischemia were studied in cats by the short-latency somatosensory evoked response. The primary cortical waves were considerably delayed following a period of white-matter ischemia; cold-lesion edema showed no significant effect on the evoked response. Vasogenic edema apparently does not interfere with axonal functioning by an ischemic mechanism.
