Spatial temperature distribution in human hairy and glabrous skin after infrared CO(2 )laser radiation

BACKGROUND: CO(2 )lasers have been used for several decades as an experimental non-touching pain stimulator. The laser energy is absorbed by the water content in the most superficial layers of the skin. The deeper located nociceptors are activated by passive conduction of heat from superficial to de...
