This page covers biological details of component Upper Dorsal Root Ganglion. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Peripheral Nervous System -> Sensory Ganglia (PN.SG) -> Dorsal Root Ganglion (AVA.PN.SG.DRG) -> Upper Dorsal Root Ganglion (LPC.PN.SG.UDRG) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: sensory ganglion
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
• Role: sensory
• Function: Integration of afferent signaling from cervical and upper thoracic somatic and viscera
• Notes to function: C1-C8, T1-T6
