Figure 1

Standardized diagrams of the right hand cerebellar nuclear complex of the rat. (A) Series of transverse sections from caudal (1) to rostral (10) separated by 160 micron (adapted after Ruigrok and Voogd, 2000). Medial is to the left. (B) Construction of the standardized diagram of a dorsal view of the separated cerebellar nuclei (adapted after Ruigrok and Voogd, 2000). Upper diagrams show how level 6 of the transverse diagrams is transposed into the bottom diagram. Note that the dorsal and ventral parts of the LCN are unfolded. *Denotes a break in the cellular chain from dorsal LCN to the lateral aspect of the DLH. Abbreviations: AIN, anterior interposed nucleus; dLCN, dorsolateral part of LCN; DLH, dorsolateral hump; DLP, dorsolateral protuberance; DMC, dorsomedial crest; ICG, interstitial cell groups; LCN, lateral cerebellar nucleus; LVN, lateral vestibular nucleus; MCN, medial cerebellar nucleus; PIN, posterior interposed nucleus; scp, superior cerebellar nucleus; SVN, superior vestibular nucleus; vLCN, ventromedial part of LCN.
