General Senses

This video covers the anatomy and physiology of some of the receptors of general senses. It illustrates the tactile (Meisnner) corpuscle, bulbous (Ruffini) corpuscle, lamellar (Pacinian) corpuscle, free nerve endings, and hair follicle receptor. It explains tests to general sense physiology such as, two-point discrimination, tactile localization, adaptation and referred pain and relates the results to size and density of the receptive field
