In humans the tectospinal tract (also known as colliculospinal tract) is a nerve pathway that coordinates head and eye movements. This neural tract is part of the indirect extrapyramidal tract. To be specific the tectospinal tract connects the midbrain tectum and the spinal cord.It is responsible for motor impulses that arise from one side of the midbrain to muscles on the opposite side of the body.
