To establish normal predictive values for cord dorsum potential (CDP) onset latency after thoracic and pelvic limb sensory or mixed nerve stimulation in adult dogs. 26 clinically normal adult dogs. Sensory nerve action potentials (SNAP) were recorded proximally from tibial and lateral superficial ra...
