Conduction velocity is the speed at which electrical signals travel along axons and is a crucial determinant of neural communication. Inferences about conduction velocity can now be made in vivo in ...
Background: Based on published experimental evidence, a recent publication revealed an anomalous phenomenon in nerve conduction: for myelinated nerves the nerve conduction velocity (NCV) increases ...
Thermal action is a crucial process in laser processing. The classical Fourier heat conduction theory, which assumes an infinite speed of heat propagation, is commonly applied to describe steady-state ...
Over a time course of months, the stability of atrial fibrillation (AF) gradually increases and the efficacy of pharmacological cardioversion declines both in humans and in animal models. Changes in ...
