Corticospinal Function and Voluntary Movement
This book focuses on the functions of corticospinal projections in the primate brain.

Clinical Neuroanatomy: A Neurobehavioral Approach
The corticospinal tract, largely coming from the region around the central sulcus,
descends through the basilar portion of the pons. As the corticospinal tract exits
from the pons, it forms the pyramids on the ventral surface of the upper medulla.

O LATERAL CORTICOSPINAL TRACT (Figure 8-1 and 8-4; see also Figure 9-1)

Localization in Clinical Neurology
The puzzle is resolved when one realizes that the destruction of the corticospinal
tract logically follows metabolic injury to the neurons that give rise to it. The larger
neurons, with the longest axons reaching the lumbar segments, are affected ...

The most important component of the lateral pathways is the corticospinal tract (
Figure 14. 3a). Originating in the neocortex, it is the longest and one of the largest
central nervous system (CNS) tracts (106 axons). Two-thirds of the axons in the ...

Diseases of the Spine and Spinal Cord
to 90% of the corticospinal fibers decussate to form the lateral corticospinal tract,
which is in the dorsal portion of the lateral funiculus (Fig. l-20). Fibers within the
lateral corticospinal tract exhibit a distinct lamination which has important clinical
