Question

Physiological and Anatomical differences between DCML and Anterolateral pathway

Answer 1

ANSWER;Anterolateral System. Injury to the anterolateral system will produce an impairment of pain and temperature sensation. In contrast to DCML lesions, this sensory loss will be contralateral (the spinothalamic tracts decussate within the spinal cord). ... DCML pathway – ipsilateral loss of touch, vibration and proprioception

Explanation: its name arises from the two major structures that comprise the DCML. In the spinal cord, information travels via the dorsal (posterior) columns. In the brainstem, it is transmitted through the medial lemniscus.

There are three groups of neurones involved in this pathway – first, second and third order neurones.

Answer 2

DCML and Anterolateral Pathway

Explanation:

• As contrast to DCML sores, this sensory loss will be contralateral (the spinothalamic tracts decussate inside the spinal cord)
• DCML pathway is  ipsilateral loss of touch, vibration and proprioception
• Anterolateral system is contralateral loss of pain and temperature sensation  
• Dorsal sections and spinothalamic tracts contain ipsilateral and contralateral strands, individually, transection of one-portion of the spinal cord prompts a trademark example of tactile misfortune. This is known as Brown–Sequard disorder or sensory dissociation
