Fig 6.

Coronal, axial, and sagittal images illustrating the superior ascent of the dentatorubrothalamic tract (19) to the Vim nucleus (75). A, Slight obliquity of the image allows depiction of the Vim and DRT on the left and the posterior aspect of the relatively more hyperintense nucleus ventrooralis (33) on the right (zona incerta labeled with asterisks). The relationship of the PLIC (26), nucleus ventrocaudalis anterior (28), and nucleus ventrocaudalis posterior (29) nuclei to the Vim is also illustrated. For completeness, the interested reader can find the proximal or prerubral component of the dentatorubrothalamic pathway also demonstrated in On-line Fig 3 of the previous report.⁵⁷
