Conscious Proprioception

Cards (1)

  • Conscious Proprioception
    Proprioceptors detect tension -> project through dorsal column -> up to dorsal column nuclei -> projects to medial leminiscus -> medial leminiscus axons travel to the ventral posterior lateral nucleus of the thalamus -> projects to somatosensory cortex
    IN head, proprioceptive signals travels from the trigeminal systems to the ventral posterior medial nucleus of the thalamus -> then to the somatosensory cortex
