This decussation occurs in the midbrain tegmentum at the level of the inferior colliculi. |
|
The brainstem has been cut through the inferior colliculi and the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncles. |
|
In the decussation of the pyramids, the bundles of corticospinal fibers are interposed between the ventral gray matter and the central gray substance. |
|
The bulky superior cerebellar peduncles cross each other to form the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncles, located within the midbrain tegmentum. |
|
The trigeminal alone had a spinal root which wandered down for a few centimetres past the decussation of the pyramids to finish at the level of the second cervical nerve. |
|
Diffusion tensor tractography confirms the failure of superior cerebellar peduncle decussation. |
|
The result of the partial decussation is that an object in, say, the right-hand visual field produces effects in the two eyes that are transmitted to the left-hand side of the brain only. |
|
This partial decussation is called the chiasma. |
