Figure 15. Human cerebro-cerebellar system.

Figure 15

The medial cerebellar system receives cortical information from areas 4, 8 and 7 via the ND [62], [63], [38], [56]. The lateral cerebellar system might not have been related only to skilful motor learning via areas 4, 6, 5 and 8 [35], [36], [63], [38], [56], but also to cognitive and language processing via the prefrontal cortico-rubral projection. CTT–central tegmental tract, dD–dorsal half of cerebellar dentate nucleus, dl–dorsal lamella, Gl–cerebellar globose nucleus, lb–lateral bend, MAO–medial accessory olive, MTT–medial tegmental tract, NB–nucleus accessorius medialis of Bechterew, ND–nucleus of Darkschewitsch, pNr–parvicellular red nucleus, PO–principal olive, vD–ventral half of cerebellar dentate nucleus, vl–ventral lamella, 4–motor area, 5–somatosensory association cortex, 6–premotor area, 7–posterior parietal cortex, 8–frontal eye field, 44–Broca's speech area.
