An advanced Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) stimulator for evaluating nerve impairment in clinical, research and pharmacological trials
The PATHWAY model ATS expands the functionality and performance of Medoc's TSA-II NeuroSensory Analyzer, and offers optional add-on fMRI compatibility.
The ATS takes QST to a new level, delivering painful and non-painful stimuli at a temperature range of -10ºC to 54ºC. This opens new research opportunities in deep cold and heat pain studies.
Like the TSA-II, the PATHWAY ATS is available with 30x30mm and 16x16mm ATS Thermal Stimulator Probes' ("Thermodes").
PATHWAY-ATS is available as a complete mobile system on a uniquely designed clinical cart, containing electronic base unit, heavy-duty integrated cooling unit, analog output, TTL input & output, Digital Calibration Kit and PATHWAY-ATS Advanced Thermal Stimulation Software.
