The medial lemniscus, also known as Reil's band or Reil's ribbon (for German anatomist Johann Christian Reil), is a large ascending bundle of heavily myelinated axons that decussate in the brainstem, specifically in the medulla oblongata.

2023年8月7日 · The medial lemniscus is a second-order neuron of the dorsal column-medial lemniscus pathway (DCML), which, with the somatotopic arrangement, transports the sensory spinothalamic information of conscious proprioception, vibration, fine touch, and 2-point discrimination of skin and joints of the body and head; from the caudal medulla to the ...

2023年7月26日 · The dorsal column-medial lemniscus pathway (DCML) is a sensory pathway of the central nervous system. It conveys sensation of fine touch, vibration, pressure, two-point discrimination and proprioception (position) from the skin and joints. Also known as the posterior column - medial lemniscus pathway, it consists of two parts

2024年2月19日 · The medial lemniscus, also known as Reil's band, is an ascending bundle of myelinated axons extending from the gracile and cuneate nuclei in the dorsal medulla up to the contralateral thalamus.

The medial lemniscus, also known as Reil's band or Reil's ribbon, is a pathway in the brainstem that carries sensory information from the gracile and cuneate nuclei to the thalamus.

The medial leminiscus is a bundle of white matter tracts, or neurons, that ascends within the brainstem, located dorsally to the pyramids. It transmits sensory information related to conscious proprioception, vibration, fine touch, and two-point discrimination to the thalamus.

Medial lemniscus refers to the second-order fibers located contralaterally in the brain stem. From: Clinical Anatomy of the Spine, Spinal Cord, and Ans (Third Edition), 2014

The medial lemniscus is a pathway in the nervous system that carries discriminative touch and proprioception information from the body to the brain. It consists of axons that ascend from the gracile and cuneate nuclei in the medulla to the thalamus, where they synapse before reaching the postcentral gyrus in the brain.

A lemniscus (Greek for ribbon or band [1]) is a bundle of secondary sensory fibers in the brainstem. The medial lemniscus and lateral lemniscus terminate in specific relay nuclei of the diencephalon. The trigeminal lemniscus is sometimes considered as the cephalic part of the medial lemniscus. [2] .

2011年5月15日 · The medial lemniscus is part of the main somatosensory pathways ascending within the brainstem. It is formed by the heavily myelinated axons of the second order neurones of the dorsal column nuclei.
