Spinal Cord
Same Meningeal Layers as the Brain
About 45cm long
Diameter of 1 cm.
Root filaments
Dorsal
Ventral
Pia mater
Arachnoid mater
Mixed spinal
nerve
Dura mater

Spinal Nerve Components
Dorsal Division: sensory part of nerve, sensory
information enters spinal cord through dorsal
root fibers
Ganglion: cell bodies of these nerves come
together to create the dorsal root ganglion
Dorsal Horn or Column: information enters the
spinal column at the dorsal horn
Spinal Nerve Components
Ventral Division: motor commands, leave the
ventral root and go to muscles
Ventral Horn or Column: information passed
from brain to spinal cord then from the ventral
root to the extremities

Segmental Spinal Reflex Arc
 A stimulus/response system that maintains a constant state of muscular
tone
 Works by:
– muscles spindles sense stretching and send information through gamma
nerves to dorsal root of spinal cord
– a signal is sent back from the ventral root for the muscle to contract
Spinal Cord
Dorsal root fibers form ganglion
Connect to ventral fibers to form peripheral
spinal nerves.
Attached by Filum Terminale

Internal Spinal Cord
Gray Matter
Two Dorsal Horns (Sensory Info)
Two Ventral Horns (Motor Info)
White Matter
Three Myelinated Fasciculi
Dorsal, Lateral and Ventral

Ventricles
 Lateral Ventricles
 Connected by
interventricular foramen
 Collateral trigone area
 Posterior and inferior horns
 Connects to Third Ventricle
through Monro’s foramen
13
Ventricles
Birds Eye View
– Usually symmetrical in healthy people
14
Other ventricles…
 Third Ventricle
 Ventral to the corpora
quadrigemina
 Surrounded by central gray
area
 Connects to fourth ventricle
through Cerebral Aqueduct
 Fourth ventricle
– Near Pons / Medulla

heart pounds. What part of your CNS is
dominant?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Parasagittal
Sympathetic
Parasympathetic
Local
16
Ventricles
17
Ventricles in clinical setting
Hydrocephalus
– E.G. cyst
18
White matter fibers from the cortex
Brain stem connects to cortex
19
Medullary Centers
Interhemispheric (between) Connections
Intrahemispheric (within) Connections
Three types of fibers
– Projection: Project through internal capsule
– Association: Within a hemisphere
i.e. Arcuate fasciculus
– Commissural: Between hemispheres i.e. Corpus
callosum
20
Meninges
Three Basic Levels
Extensions of Dura mater
Falx Cerebri: Vertical partition dipping into
cranial space (Refection)
Tentorium Cerebri: Houses the cerebellum
Falx Cerebelli: Separates two cerebellar
hemispheres
21
Multiple choice
 What view of the brain is this?
A.
B.
C.
D.
Sagittal
Axial
Coronal
Sympathetic
22
Meninges
Arachnoid Trabeculae
– Connects Pia and Arachnoid
– Inside subarachnoid space
Arachnoid Villi
– Specialized protrusions through
which Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF)
leaves the brain
23
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
 12 pairs of cranial nerves– Sensory, motor, or mixed
