spinothalamic tract of the medulla

spinothalamic tract of the medulla (stm)

The term spinothalamic tract of the medulla refers to the part of the spinothalamic tract in the medulla. It is formed by merger of the anterior spinothalamic tract of the medulla and the lateral spinothalamic tract of the medulla (NeuroNames).

Also known as: spinothalamic tract of the medulla, spinothalamic tract of medulla, Tractus spinothalamicus (myelencephali), spinothalamic tract

Models Where It Appears

Structural CNS Model - Macaque

Brain structures of the macaque are illustrated in BrainInfo’s NeuroMaps macaque brain atlas. Structures are grouped by proximity in a hierarchy corresponding to the central nervous system hierarchy of NeuroNames ( Bowden-1995 Martin-2000 ). Structures in the NeuroMaps atlas are based on the segmentation of an MRI of the brain of a 3-year old male rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta). The atlas is most useful for targeting structures for implantating electrodes and chemtrodes. Updated 29 Oct 2025.
