Short Pulse Epiretinal Stimulation Allows Focal Activation of Retinal Ganglion Cells by Laurin X. Koppenwallner, Gunther Zeck, Paul Werginz

“…Axonal thresholds were significantly higher for all pulse durations, with the ratio between axonal and somatic thresholds strongly increasing with decreasing pulse duration (1.32 and 4.39 for pulse durations of 500 and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$10\mu $ </tex-math></inline-formula>s, respectively). Computational modeling points to somatic polarization as the underlying mechanism for lower somatic thresholds. …”
