The patellar network (circulatory anastomosis around the knee-joint patellar anastomosis genicular anastomosis articular vascular network of knee or rete articulare genus) is an intricate network of vessels around and above […]
Palmar radioulnar ligament
The volar palmar (volar radioulnar ligament anterior radioulnar ligament) is a narrow band of fibers extending from the anterior margin of the ulnar notch of the radius to the front […]
Dorsal radioulnar ligament
The dorsal radioulnar ligament (posterior radioulnar ligament) extends between corresponding surfaces on the dorsal aspect of the distal radioulnar articulation.This article incorporates text from a public domain edition of Gray’s […]
Paramedian reticular nucleus
The paramedian reticular nucleus (in Terminologia Anatomica or paramedian medullary reticular group in NeuroNames) sends its connections to the spinal cord in a mostly ipsilateral manner although there is some […]
Gigantocellular reticular nucleus
The gigantocellular nucleus as the name indicates is mainly composed of the so-called giant neuronal cells. This nucleus has been known to innervate the caudal hypoglossal nucleus and responds to […]
Caudal pontine reticular nucleus
The caudal pontine reticular nucleus or nucleus reticularis pontis caudalis is composed of gigantocellular neurons. In rabbits and cats it is exclusively giant cells however in humans there are normally […]
Oral pontine reticular nucleus
The oral pontine reticular nucleus is delineated from its caudal brother with which it shares its first three names. This nucleus tapers into the lower mesencephalic reticular formation and contains […]
Parvocellular reticular nucleus
The parvocellular reticular nucleus is part of the brain located dorsolateral to the nucleus reticularis pontis caudalis. The dorsal portion of the reticular nucleus has been shown to innervate the […]
Ventral reticular nucleus
The ventral reticular nucleus is a continuation of the parvocellular nucleus in the brainstem. The ventral reticular nucleus has been shown to receive afferent projections from the dentate gyrus in […]
