Faculty of biomedical engineering saeed aghvami 1386 fall
Importance • Understanding natural function of nerve and muscle • Clinical diagnosis, therapy, and rehabilitation • Electric and magnetic field stimulation
Number of variables • geometry of the tissue being stimulated • Electrical characteristics • Location of the stimulus electrodes
Spherical cell stimulation • In a spherical cell, the response to stimulus depend only on time

Vm is non zero for all values of x • The effect of the stimulus varies with x. • The magnitude of Vm increases as extracellular resistance increases • Positive current at the origin leads to hyperpolarized • as a measure of the distance from source
