161 Sensation from the Body: Neuroanatomy Video Lab - Brain DissectionsSuzanne S. Stensaas, PhDSensation consists of various modalities, which tend to travel in one of two pathways. The Anterolateral System also known as the Spinothalamic Tract carries pain and temperature. The Dorsal Column-Medical Lemniscus Pathway carries vibration, joint position, and fine 2-point discrimination. Light or...Spinothalamic Tract; Anterolateral System; Dorsal Column-Medical Lemniscus Pathway; Body Sensation' Brain' Dissection

173 Pupillary BlockSujata Dalal; James Brian Davis; Amanda Dean HendersonPupillary block occurs when the pupillary margin of the iris contacts the anterior surface of the lens. This creates a barrier for the outflow of aqueous humor from the posterior chamber to the anterior chamber and resultant increased pressure in the posterior chamber. This pressure can cause the ir...Angle-Closure Glaucoma; Iris Bombe; Narrow Angle; Pupillary Block
174 Intracranial Hemorrhage: Classification and MechanismsVictoria S. Pelak, MDIntracranial hemorrhages can be life-threatening events.
