Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Sensory pathways are involved in the transfer of signal and nerve stimulus between the posterior and lateral funiculi of the spinal cord. The signals finally reach the cerebellum region of the brain. It is divided into the anterior and the posterior tracts according to the stimulus.
