Answer:
TEE Transesophageal Echocardiography
Explanation:
TEE is an ultrasound of the heart but instead of doing it from the chest it is done by inserting a small probe into the esophagus. Since the esophagus is very close to the heart, it can be seen much better than a conventional echocardiogram. The abbreviation comes from TransEsophageal Echocardiography (TEE).
<span>Pacinian corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors so they respond only at the onset and offset of the stimulus. The Pacinian corpuscle has a single afferent nerve fiber. Its end is covered by a sensitive receptor membrane whose sodium channels will open when the membrane is deformed in any way. Pressure thus causes sodium to enter the neuron and create a generator potential. If this potential reaches a certain threshold nerve impulses are formed. This impulse is now transferred along the axon with the use of sodium channels and sodium/potassium pumps in the axon membrane. The magnitude of the stimulus is encoded in the frequency of impulses generated in the neuron. So the more massive or rapid the deformation of a single corpuscle, the higher the frequency of nerve impulses generated in its neuron.</span>
