  2. Vestibular nuclei - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestibular_nuclei

    Name Location Notes medial vestibular nucleus (dorsal or chief vestibular nucleus) : medulla (floor of fourth ventricle) : corresponding to the lower part of the area acustica in the rhomboid fossa; [citation needed] the caudal end of this nucleus is sometimes termed the descending or spinal vestibular nucleus.

  3. Superior vestibular nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_vestibular_nucleus

    The superior vestibular nucleus (Bechterew's nucleus) is the dorso-lateral part of the vestibular nucleus and receives collaterals and terminals from the ascending branches of the vestibular nerve. Sends uncrossed fibers to cranial nerve 3 and 4 via the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF)

    The medial vestibular nucleus (Schwalbe nucleus) is one of the vestibular nuclei. It is located in the medulla oblongata . Lateral vestibulo-spinal tract (lateral vestibular nucleus “Deiters”)- via ventrolateral medulla and spinal cord to ventral funiculus (lumbo-sacral segments). ..

    Other axons from Deiters’s nucleus are supposed to cross and ascend in the opposite medial lemniscus to the ventro-lateral nuclei of the thalamus; still other fibers pass into the cerebellum with the inferior peduncle and are distributed to the cortex of the vermis and the roof nuclei of the cerebellum; according to Cajal they merely pass ...

  9. Vestibulospinal tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestibulospinal_tract

    Like other descending motor pathways, the vestibulospinal fibers of the tract relay information from nuclei to motor neurons. [1] The vestibular nuclei receive information through the vestibulocochlear nerve about changes in the orientation of the head. The nuclei relay motor commands through the vestibulospinal tract.
