Somatic Sensation
General sensation.
![Page 8: Long Sensory Pathways (Somatic Sensation)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816513550346895dd78db1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Somatic Sensation
General sensation.
Crude (non-discriminative) touch. Cannot localize sensation.
Temperature
Pain
Proprioception
Vibration
Fine (discriminative) touch. Can localize sensation.
Anterior lateral system(ALS)
Dorsal column-Medial Lemniscus(DCML)
Receptor distribution is NOT uniform over the body surface; receptor density varies, as does receptive field size. Results in distorted cortical maps representing different parts of the body.

• Ascending visceral afferent input travels in the
anterolateral system (dashed) and through
multisynaptic circuits via the reticular formation of
the brain stem (spino-reticulo-thalamic pathway)
(solid).
• These fibers influence both specific and diverse
areas of the cerebral cortex.
• Thalamic relays include intralaminar and midline
nuclei and cortical areas include orbitofrontal
cortex, insula and anterior cingulate gyrus.
