| Popis: | Laser can precisely deliver quantitative energy to a desired region in a non-contact way. Since it can stimulate regions and minutely control parameters such as the intensity, duration and frequency of stimulus, laser is often used for the areas such as low power laser treatment and clinical physiology. This study proposes simulation using pulse diode laser with reliable output and identifies laser parameters that can present a variety of somesthesis. It is found that typically, as frequency and energy increase, the ratio of feeling senses increases, and dominant sense moves from the sense of heat through tactile sense to pain. This study will be baseline data for studies of the sense of heat, tactile sense and pain, contribute to studying neurophysiology sector and be applied to basic clinical research. |
