Brain Stem and Cerebellum: Normal and Pathological Anatomy (Clinical considerations)cerebellar infarctionbrainstem infarction dural sinus thrombosisEven though experience is limited, it is evident that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides an excellent method with which to evaluate the brain stem and ...
What is the brainstem? What part of the brain controls movement? What system is the brain in? Is the cerebellum part of the limbic system? Which lobe of the brain contains the hypothalamus? What is cognitive neurology? What is the thalamus?
The Cerebellum is located in the back of the brain at the level of the brainstem bridge, under the occipital lobe (slightly above the nape of the neck). It binds to the rest of the brain through the lower, middle and upper cerebral peduncles, which are a set of nerve fibers that carr...
The cerebellum is located at the bottom and back of the brain, below the occipital lobe and behind the brainstem. The cerebellum is made up of two major parts: There are two cerebellar nuclei which are located in the innermost parts of the cerebellum; they are the main output structures Eac...

These structures are the superior, middle and inferior cerebellar peduncles. The connections between the cerebellum and the respective parts of the brainstem are given below: to midbrain: superior cerebellar peduncles to pons: middle cerebellar peduncles to medulla: inferior cerebellar peduncles ...
19.2). They migrate out of the RL via two streams: a dorsal pathway whereby the cell disperse into the forming cerebellar white matter, avoiding the future mass of CNs before invading the granular layer, and a rostral pathway toward the brainstem along the fourth ventricle (Englund et al., ...
(Anatomy) one of the major divisions of the vertebrate brain, situated in man above the medulla oblongata and beneath the cerebrum, whose function is coordination of voluntary movements and maintenance of bodily equilibrium [C16: from Latin, diminutive of cerebrum] ...
This chapter provides a detailed overview of the cerebellum, an essential structure in the brain responsible for coordinating and regulating various aspects of motor control and balance. The cerebellum is divided into distinct parts based on its anatomy and functional connections, including the anterior...
Illustratively, the principle cell type of the cerebellar circuit, the Purkinje cell, selectively degenerates in most forms of ataxia, as do the downstream cerebellar and brainstem nuclei14. Accordingly, a major goal of ataxia research has been to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying this ...
