Fig. 5From: Altered excitability of small cutaneous nerve fibers during cooling assessed with the perception threshold tracking techniqueThe experimental results could be reproduced in the computational model. a Extracellular field alteration potential at the distal end of the axon model. b The membrane potential at the distal end of the axon model induced when the alteration in extracellular field according to A was applied. c The activation threshold for different durations of the extracellular field alteration for the two temperature conditions. The activation threshold was defined as the extracellular field alteration required to generate and action potential propagating to the end of the axon modelBack to article page
