Exogenous and endogenous components of ultralate (C-fibre) evoked potentials following CO2 laser stimuli to tiny skin surface areas in healthy subjects.

Abstract Extract:
CO2 laser stimulation of tiny skin surface areas on the hand dorsum generate ultralate laser evoked potentials (LEPs) with a major positivity maximal at the vertex at a latency of about 1 s. These potentials follow selective and direct activation of ... (Full abstract text below)
