    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_columns

    The anterior grey column, (also known as the anterior horn of spinal cord and anterior cornu) is broad and of a rounded or quadrangular shape. Its posterior part is termed the base, and its anterior part the head, but these are not differentiated from each other by any well-defined constriction.

  3. Lateral grey column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_grey_column

    The four main divisions of the spinal column, from top to bottom: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral. The lateral grey column (lateral column, lateral cornu, lateral horn of spinal cord, intermediolateral column) is one of the three grey columns of the spinal cord (which give the shape of a butterfly); the others being the anterior and posterior grey columns.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rexed_laminae

    Lateral grey column: VII and X Lamina VII: intermediomedial nucleus, intermediolateral nucleus, posterior thoracic nucleus in the thoracic and upper lumbar region [6] Lamina X: an area of grey matter – the grey commissure surrounding the central canal. This region also serves to connect the anterior and posterior grey columns. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediolateral_nucleus

    The intermediolateral nucleus (IML) is located in Rexed lamina VII of the lateral grey column, one of three grey matter columns found in the spinal cord. The intermediolateral cell column exists at vertebral levels T1 – L3. [1] It mediates the entire sympathetic innervation of the body, but the nucleus resides in the grey matter of the spinal ...

    It constitutes the first synapse of the posterior gray column carrying proprioception, two-point discrimination, and vibration sensations from peripheral nerves. Cells in this nucleus project to deeper laminae of the spinal cord , to the posterior column nuclei, and to other supraspinal relay centers including the midbrain , thalamus , and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_matter

    Grey matter in the spinal cord is known as the grey column which travels down the spinal cord distributed in three grey columns that are presented in an "H" shape. The forward-facing column is the anterior grey column , the rear-facing one is the posterior grey column and the interlinking one is the lateral grey column .
