It receives input from trigeminal nerve, facial nerve, glossopharyngeal nerve and vagus nerve. It receives discriminative tactile and pressure input from the contralateral principal sensory nucleus of CN V, which terminates in the ventral posteromedial nucleus of the thalamus. It then ascends to the contralateral sensory cortex via three neurons . UMLS:C0175460 BAMS:v5 dorsal trigeminal tract pontine tegmentum trigeminothalamic tract tract of brain
