HY Thalamic Nuclei
Day 8
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Somatosensory from body (via medial lemniscus and spinothalamic) | VPL |
| Communications with prefrontal cortex | Medial dorsal (MD) |
| Cerebellum (dentate nucleus) and basal ganglia--> motor cortex | Ventrolateral (VL) |
| Trigeminothalamic and taste pathways to somatosensory cortex | Ventral posteromedial (VPM) |
| Retina--> occipital lobe | Lateral geniculate body |
| Basal ganglia--> prefrontal, premotor, and orbital cortices | Ventral anterior (VA) |
| Mamillothalamic tract--> cingulate gyrus (part of Papez circuit) | Anterior nucleus |
| Integration of visual, auditory, and somesthetic input | Pulvinar nucleus |
| Memory loss results if destroyed | Medial dorsal (MD) |
| (Auditory info) brachium of inferior colliculus--> primary auditory cortex | Medial geniculate body |
| Dentate nucleus and basal ganglia--> supplementary motor cortex | Ventral lateral |
