Spinal tissue

Spinal tissue was living tissue in the Human body and part of the spinal cord, used to send signals from the cord to the rest of the body.

After beaming Lily Sloane aboard the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-E)'s sickbay for examination in 2063, Dr. Beverly Crusher told Nurse Alyssa Ogawa that the damage to Sloane's cell membranes had been repaired, but she wanted to run another test on her spinal tissue. Sloane's medical problems with her spinal tissue was caused by theta radiation emanating from the damaged Phoenix's throttle assembly.
