The medial lemniscus, also known as Reil's band or Reil's ribbon (for German anatomist Johann Christian Reil), is a large ascending bundle of heavily myelinated axons that decussate in the brainstem, specifically in the medulla oblongata. The medial lemniscus is formed by the crossings of the internal arcuate fibers.
The medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF) is a prominent bundle of nerve fibres which pass within the ventral/anterior portion of periaqueductal gray of the mesencephalon (midbrain). [1] It contains the interstitial nucleus of Cajal , responsible for oculomotor control, head posture, and vertical eye movement.
Medial axis, in geometry the set of all points having more than one closest point on an object's boundary; Medial graph, another graph that represents the adjacencies between edges in the faces of a plane graph; Medial triangle, the triangle whose vertices lie at the midpoints of an enclosing triangle's sides; Polyhedra: Medial deltoidal ...
