  2. Spinal cord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_cord

    Sectional organization of spinal cord. The spinal cord is the main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system. [3] [4] Much shorter than its protecting spinal column, the human spinal cord originates in the brainstem, passes through the foramen magnum, and continues through to the conus medullaris near the second lumbar vertebra before terminating in a fibrous ...

  3. Spinal cord injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_cord_injury

    CT gives greater detail than X-rays, but exposes the patient to more radiation, [91] and it still does not give images of the spinal cord or ligaments; MRI shows body structures in the greatest detail. [10] Thus it is the standard for anyone who has neurological deficits found in SCI or is thought to have an unstable spinal column injury. [92]

  4. Rexed laminae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rexed_laminae

    The Rexed laminae (singular: Rexed lamina) comprise a system of ten layers of grey matter (I–X), identified in the early 1950s by Bror Rexed to label portions of the grey columns of the spinal cord. [1][2] Similar to Brodmann areas, they are defined by their cellular structure rather than by their location, but the location still remains ...

  5. Spinal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_nerve

    A spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body. In the human body there are 31 pairs of spinal nerves, one on each side of the vertebral column. [ 1 ][ 2 ] These are grouped into the corresponding cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions of the spine. [ 1 ]

  6. Dermatome (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatome_(anatomy)

    Dermatome (anatomy) A dermatome is an area of skin that is mainly supplied by afferent nerve fibres from the dorsal root of any given spinal nerve. [1][2] There are 8 cervical nerves (C1 being an exception with no dermatome), 12 thoracic nerves, 5 lumbar nerves and 5 sacral nerves. Each of these nerves relays sensation (including pain) from a ...

  7. Dura mater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dura_mater

    Dura mater. In neuroanatomy, dura mater is a thick membrane made of dense irregular connective tissue that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. It is the outermost of the three layers of membrane called the meninges that protect the central nervous system. The other two meningeal layers are the arachnoid mater and the pia mater.

  8. Sympathetic trunk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sympathetic_trunk

    Function. The sympathetic trunk is a fundamental part of the sympathetic nervous system, and part of the autonomic nervous system. It allows nerve fibres to travel to spinal nerves that are superior and inferior to the one in which they originated. Also, a number of nerves, such as most of the splanchnic nerves, arise directly from the trunks.

  9. Anterior white commissure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_white_commissure

    The white commissure is highlighted in green. The anterior white commissure (ventral white commissure) is a bundle of nerve fibers which cross the midline of the spinal cord just anterior (in front of) to the gray commissure (Rexed lamina X). A delta fibers (Aδ fibers) and C fibers carrying pain sensation in the spinothalamic tract contribute ...
