摘要：

Using diffusion tensor tractography, we investigated the anatomical location of medial lemniscus (ML) and spinothalamic tract (STT) at pons. We recruited 47 healthy volunteers. Evaluation of the anatomical location of ML and STT was performed using the highest probabilistic location at the upper, middle, and lower pons. According to findings, MLs were located around the middle to medial one-third, between midline and lateral boundary of pons in the pontine tegmentum and STTs were located posterolaterally to ML.
