So grateful for this clear and well organized video! I was really confused about the fact that the lateral horn of the spinal cord was present in segments S2-S4, when the spinal cord ends at the level of L1-L2, this video confirmed the only logical conclusion I could think of, that the discrepancy between the lenght of spinal cord meant that the spinal segments corresponding to spinal nerves caudal to the spinal cord had to be contained in the conus medullaris. This important and potentially confusing distinction between spinal segments and spinal levels wasn't really explained in much detail in a single one of my anatomy books, neuroanatomy books, or even shown clearly in my atlas. This is truly gold for a medical student!
I think teachers have to give up the traditional presentation way and start to learn making animated lectures to their calsses. Big thank for you Dr. Morton❤
Damn, imagine having a teacher like that, wouldn’t miss a class
V column= 33 segments (7 Cervical/12 Thoracic/5 Lumbar/ 5 Sacral/4 coccyx)
Spinal cord= 31 segments cord/nerve segments (8 Cervical/12 Thoracic/5 Lumbar/ 5 Sacral/1 coccyx)
Occipital bone=first cervical vertebrae informally.
Vertebral Segmental discrepancy=Cervical region nerve exits above associated vertebrae. C8 spinal segment courses above the T1 Vertebrae.
Thoracic region=all spinal nerves exit below associated vertebrae/spinal nerves start horizontally and then obliquely.
Lumbar region=spinal cord levels are more superior to their associated vertebrae. Spinal nerves course vertically (becoming the cauda equina) to course below their associated vertebrae.
Sacral region=Spinal cord are more superior to their associated vertebrae-course vertically becoming cauda equina.
Loved how you made objective questions and went about answering each one. Answered all my confusions in one video. God bless!

You are the best there is in anatomy teaching on RUclips. Keep doing what you are doing man👏🙏

Sooo true I totally agree to this, in 7 years I've never really understood it properly... Finally today I got to know how it works exactlyyy
Why didn't they teach us like thisss😭😭😭 I swear I would've done great
The feeling of understanding medical concepts that you’ve been struggling with for a long time is unmatched, thank you! much love and respect
Simply beautiful explanation
Thanks. Clears so many doubts I had for ages.
Please explain all spinal cord pluxes dilated
I have no idea why i watched this, maybe I was curious. This might be my career path sir
You're a really good teacher! Your videos are awesome! Thank you!
Glad you like them!
Your videos make learning anatomy very fun and interesting. You're an absolute treasure and must be preserved at all costs.
When you showed I picture of Richard Gere and said "lets change gears"... I lost it, Brava!!!
I like it when people get my jokes:)
Amazing explanation, I know understand not only the descrepency, but also how the cauda equina is formed. Thank you! :)

This was amazing
Thanks a lot ! Now I am fully understand about the spinal cord and vertebral column.
I think teachers have to give up the traditional presentation way and start to learn making animated lectures to their calsses. Big thank for you Dr. Morton❤
Thank you 🙏🏻
this helps me a lot in preparation to med schooling. You're very good at this!
it's very interesting. I learn more clearly about spinal cord segmentation. Thank you for your terrific presentation.
Thank you so much...... Finally understood it
You are awesome ...
Thank you so much sir

That's the in- detailed explanation missed in many sources I havd read.
superb
awesome
What about the coccyceal spine level?
It is there but I don’t focus so much on it because it has little clinical significance
@@TheNotedAnatomist Oh okay.Btw the videos are awesome and easy-to understand the main concept.Keep it up :)
finally i understand this topic, thank you so much!
You always make me happy when l studied anatomy 🔥🤍
Thanks doctor
nice work!
