  • Title: [Long loop reflexes--a clinically relevant method].
    Author: Claus D.
    Journal: Fortschr Neurol Psychiatr; 1986 Feb; 54(2):35-41. PubMed ID: 3007315.
    Abstract:
    Late reflex potentials have been know for a long time. On the upper limb it has been proven that these potentials have a transcortical pathway. The electrical stimulation of nerve trunks is easily applicable in clinical practice and produces clear long-loop responses. The typical results can be reproduced for extrapyramidal, cerebellar and pyramidal lesions by this method. The long-loop reflex is sensitive to lesions in the course of the pyramidal tract.
