Dimov and co-workers (12) commented: Since we had found nothing in the literature on normal subjects with which to make a comparison we carried out the same study on a normal subject and found that the visual evoked responses in the frontal region showed, at 30 msec, an absolute refractory period for waves II and VI and a relative one for waves III, IV and V: we were able to confirm in the same subject the existence of facilitation.
