The 11 pages that link to Spinothalamic tract, each with the reason it gives.

• NociceptionBroader topic: It carries much nociceptive information from the spinal cord toward higher brain regions.

• PainBroader topic: It is one major route by which nociceptive information reaches the brain.

• Sensory neuronBroader topic: Sensory neurons conveying pain and temperature enter spinal circuits that feed this tract.

• Somatosensory systemRelated: It carries major streams of pain and temperature information from the body.

• Descending pain modulationRelated: Descending control can alter signals before they ascend through this pathway.

• Acute painRelated: It conveys much of the nociceptive information generated by acute tissue injury.

• SomatosensationBroader topic: It carries major somatosensory signals that do not travel in the dorsal columns.

• Sensory nervous systemBroader topic: It exemplifies how sensory signals travel from the spinal cord toward the brain.

• SyringomyeliaRelated: Its crossing fibers near the central cord are vulnerable to an expanding syrinx.

• Neural pathwayBroader topic: Its route shows how sensory signals ascend from the spinal cord to the thalamus.

• HypoesthesiaRelated: Damage can blunt pain or temperature sensation below a spinal lesion.
