  2. Ventral ramus of spinal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventral_ramus_of_spinal_nerve

    The ventral ramus (pl.: rami) (Latin for 'branch') is the anterior division of a spinal nerve. The ventral rami supply the antero-lateral parts of the trunk and the limbs. They are mainly larger than the dorsal rami. Shortly after a spinal nerve exits the intervertebral foramen, it branches into the dorsal ramus, the ventral ramus, and the ...

  3. Ramus communicans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramus_communicans

    White ramus communicans. The grey and white rami communicantes are responsible for conveying autonomic signals, specifically for the sympathetic nervous system. Their difference in coloration is caused by differences in myelination of the nerve fibres contained within, i.e. there are more myelinated than unmyelinated fibres in the white rami ...

  4. Dorsal ramus of spinal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_ramus_of_spinal_nerve

    The dorsal ramus of spinal nerve, posterior ramus of spinal nerve, or posterior primary division is the posterior division of a spinal nerve.The dorsal rami provide motor innervation to the deep (a.k.a. intrinsic or true) muscles of the back, and sensory innervation to the skin of the posterior portion of the head, neck and back.

  6. Dorsal root of spinal nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_root_of_spinal_nerve

    The dorsal root of spinal nerve (or posterior root of spinal nerve or sensory root) [1] is one of two "roots" which emerge from the spinal cord. It emerges directly from the spinal cord, and travels to the dorsal root ganglion. Nerve fibres with the ventral root then combine to form a spinal nerve. The dorsal root transmits sensory information ...

  7. Sympathetic ganglia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sympathetic_ganglia

    The general rule of interaction of the nerve fibers in the sympathetic nervous system begins at the spinal cord. Here they arise from the thoracolumbar (T1–L2) regions' lateral horn of grey and emerge via the ventral root. They enter their respective spinal nerve (e.g. T5), and thus enter the white ramus communicans. This myelinated division ...

  8. Nerve plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_plexus

    5901. Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy. [edit on Wikidata] A nerve plexus is a plexus (branching network) of intersecting nerves. [1] A nerve plexus is composed of afferent and efferent fibers that arise from the merging of the anterior rami of spinal nerves and blood vessels. There are five spinal nerve plexuses, except in the thoracic region ...

  9. White ramus communicans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_ramus_communicans

    The white ramus communicans (pl.: rami communicantes) from Latin ramus (branch) and communicans (communicating) is the preganglionic sympathetic outflow nerve tract from the spinal cord. Each of the thoracic, and the first and second lumbar nerves contribute a white ramus communicans to the adjoining sympathetic ganglion, unlike the gray rami ...
