Thermal Detection Thresholds of Aδ- and C-Fibre Afferents Activated by Brief CO(2) Laser Pulses Applied onto the Human Hairy Skin

Brief high-power laser pulses applied onto the hairy skin of the distal end of a limb generate a double sensation related to the activation of Aδ- and C-fibres, referred to as first and second pain. However, neurophysiological and behavioural responses related to the activation of C-fibres can be st...
