What is Spinal Cord White Matter Overview about?
The spinal cord white matter contains bundles of myelinated axons called tracts that facilitate motor and sensory functions. Ascending tracts transmit sensory information to the brain and descending tracts convey motor commands from the brain. The dorsal white matter contains tracts like the fasciculus gracilis and cuneatus that transmit touch, vibration and proprioception information. The lateral white matter houses tracts such as the lateral spinothalamic tract for pain and temperature sensation. Lesions
