Abstract
Minimal conduction velocities of peripheral nerves contributing to acute thermal pain sensation in human volunteer subjects were calculated. Purely thermal stimulation was administered by a low power laser beam directed at the subjects' fingers, and subjective pain responses correlated with a peak in the event-related brain potential (ERBP). These cerebral responses were found to preclude C fiber peripheral activity from this phenomenon.Entities:
