Corticospinal
Posterior column

Trigeminal nuclei
Corticospinal (grey, movment)
Posterior column – medial lemniscus (green- fine touch, conscious proprioception from neck and below, NOT from face)
Anterolateral (spinothalamic)- (temp and pain in red from neck and down into cerebrum so you can be consciously aware of it)
Trigeminal nuclei- (sensory info from face, touch, prprioception, pain, etc all from face, in blue)
anterolateral system
Sits between anterior column and lateral column
Black is descending analgesic pathway
Contains multiple tracts: spinothalmic (localization, intensity) and spinoreticular (collaterals into reticular formation)

Spinothelamic pathway comes in on spinal cord in dorsal horn, synapses in dorsal horn and cross to contralateral side of spinal cord and then ascends. Damage to spinal cord on right side lose pain on left side. Is a fully contralateral pathway
posterior column - medial leminiscus pathway
responsible for fine touch and 2 point discrimination, stereognosis, and conscious proprioception

White matter in posterior column
Legs go most medial
Upper extremity is more lateral

Fasiculus gracilis- lower extremety
Fascilulus cuneatus – upper extremity

Synapses in medulla on 2 tubercules (cuneate and gracile) after you synapse you cross over and ascend contralaterally in medial lemniscus and then synapse in thalmus

Rectus Abdominis (very anterior)
Transverse abdominis
Internal Oblique
External oblique
Rectus means running with the longitudinal axis of the body

Rectus abdominis – trunk flexion. Covered by rectus sheath in front and back, made up of apneurosis (broad flat tendon) of all three other muscles

BCD are all flank muscles and end around the semilunar line

Ext oblique's (pic D) go down and in from ribs to iliac crest

Int obliques run down and out, come off iliac crest and also goes to throaco lumbar fascia to lineal alba – in general they rotate the trunk
Ext oblique- your right rotates you left- contralateral rotations
Int oblique – your left rotates you left- ipsilateral rotation
Transverse abdominis – from thoracolumbar fascia runs anteriorly in transverse plane so it will compress your abdominal content, is more important for stabilizing the low back
