Q

Where does the spinal cord end? Where does CSF end? Where is an LP performed?

A

Spinal cord ends at L1-L2
CSF ends at S2 (Subarachnoid Space where CSF lies ends at S2)
LP between L3-L5 to keep the cord alive

Q

Course of the spinothalamic tract

A

Dorsal horn, synapses in dorsal horn, travels up anterior horn, through medulla to thalamus
