This study analyzed neuronal encoding and response thresholds to thermal stimuli at the ventro-basal (V.B.) thalamus level during a hyperalgesic inflammation induced by intra-plantar injection of carrageenin in the rat. The threshold and the encoding capacity of the cells were studied during two pha
