| sensory deprivation | The absence or restriction of the usual external sensory stimuli to which the individual responds. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| sensory epilepsy | Focal epilepsy initiated by a somatosensory phenomenon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory ganglion | A cluster of primary sensory neurons forming a usually visible swelling in the course of a peripheral nerve or its dorsal root; such nerve cells establish the sole afferent neural connection between the sensory periphery (skin, mucous membranes of the oral and nasal cavities, muscle tissue, tendons, joint capsules, special sense organs, blood vessel walls, tissues of the internal organs) and the central nervous system; they are the cells of origin of all sensory fibres of the peripheral nervous system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory image | An image based on one or more types of sensation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory neuron | 1. <anatomy> A neuron that receives input from sensory cells. 2. <physiology> Sensory cells such as cutaneous mechanoreceptors and muscle receptors. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sensory neuronopathy | Neuronopathy confined to dorsal root and gasserian ganglia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory nuclei | A group of cell bodies that receive afferent (sensory) input from the periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory paralysis | Loss of sensation; anaesthesia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory precipitated epilepsy | Seizures which are induced by peripheral stimulation; e.g., audiogenic, laryngeal, photogenic, or other stimulation. Synonym: sensory precipitated epilepsy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory receptors | Peripheral endings of afferent neurons. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory speech centre | The region of the cerebral cortex thought to be essential for understanding and formulating coherent, propositional speech; it encompasses a large region of the parietal and temporal lobes near the lateral sulcus of the left cerebral hemisphere; corresponding approximately to Brodmann's areas 40, 39, and 22. Synonym: sensory speech centre, Wernicke's area, Wernicke's field, Wernicke's region, Wernicke's zone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory system agents | Drugs that act on neuronal sensory receptors resulting in an increase, decrease, or modification of afferent nerve activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sensory thresholds | The minimum amount of stimulus energy necessary to elicit a sensory response. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sensory tract | See: lemniscus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| somatic sensory cortex | Somatosensory cortex, the region of the cerebral cortex receiving the somatic sensory radiation from the ventrobasal nucleus of the thalamus; it represents the primary cortical processing mechanism for sensory information originating at the body surfaces (touch) and in deeper tissues such as muscle, tendons, and joint capsules (position sense); it corresponds approximately to Brodmann's areas 1, 2, 3 on the postcentral gyrus. Synonym: somesthetic area. (05 Mar 2000) |
