These bodies are likewise non-conductorsfor normal human energy. Dry air at atmospheric pressure is almost a perfectinsulator of electricity, but this statement does not applyto human energy (page 55). Energy from pathological sources passes throughnon-insulating material; a fact of importance in differentialdiagnosis (page 124). Non-striated Muscleof Upper Fig. 23. Diagram of course of oculopupillary fibers of the cervical sym-pathetic. The pupil-dilating fibres arise from the pupil-dilating center in themedulla, and descending in the lateral column of the cord they emerge in theanterior roots of the first and second thoracic segments. Entering the inferiorcervical ganglion by white rami communicantes, they ascend in the cervical sym-pathetic to the Gasserian ganglion and pass to the orbit along the ophthalmicdivision of the trigeminus. The other half of the diagram shows the origin andcourse of the cardiac nerves. The stimulus applied at the seventh cervical spinecorresponds to the third dorsal segment of cord and approximately to the 2nd and3rd dorsal nerves.
