Preferential activation of small cutaneous fibers through small pin electrode also depends on the shape of a long duration electrical current

BACKGROUND: Electrical stimulation is widely used in experimental pain research but it lacks selectivity towards small nociceptive fibers. When using standard surface patch electrodes and rectangular pulses, large fibers are activated at a lower threshold than small fibers. Pin electrodes have been...
