(Talairach) whose electrodes were introduced at or around the auditory cortex (Area 41, 42), the topography of the auditory responses by the electrical bipolar stimulation and that of the auditory evoked potential by the bilateral click sound stimulation were studied in relation to the ac--pc line (Talairach).

Microphonics
Definition:
(n.) The science which treats of the means of increasing the intensity of low or weak sounds, or of the microphone.
Example Sentences:
(1) "I pulled the microphone in front of my seat, not a knife.
