abstract：:Marstock thermotesting evaluates A-delta- and C-fiber functions. To optimize this method, intraindividual variations of vasodilatation, blood flow and sympathetic activity probably biasing thermotest results were imitated by exogenous stimuli which strongly exaggerated these intraindividual variations.
