| venae cerebelli superiores | Several veins draining the superior part of the cerebellar hemispheres; they terminate in the superior petrosal sinus or the petrosal vein. Synonym: venae hemispherii cerebelli superiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| venae hemispherii cerebelli inferiores | Several veins draining the inferior portion of the cerebellar hemispheres; they terminate in the petrosal vein. Synonym: venae hemispherii cerebelli inferiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venae hemispherii cerebelli superiores | Several veins draining the superior part of the cerebellar hemispheres; they terminate in the superior petrosal sinus or the petrosal vein. Synonym: venae hemispherii cerebelli superiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena precentralis cerebelli | <anatomy, vein> An unpaired vein originating in the precentral cerebellar fissure passing anterior and superior to the culmen on its way to terminate in the great cerebral vein. Synonym: vena precentralis cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vincula lingulae cerebelli | Small lateral prolongations of the lingula of the vermis of the cerebellum resting on the dorsal surface of the superior cerebellar peduncle. Synonym: alae lingulae cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus medullare cerebelli | The interior white substance of the cerebellum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cortex cerebelli | The thin gray surface layer of the cerebellum, consisting of an outer molecular layer or stratum moleculare, a single layer of Purkinje cells (the ganglionic layer), and an inner granular layer or stratum granulosum. Synonym: cortex cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pons cerebelli | <anatomy> A rounded eminence off the ventral surface of the brainstem. The origins of cranial nerves V, VI, VII and VIII are at the border of the pons. (27 Sep 1997) |
| hemispherium cerebelli | The large part of the cerebellum lateral to the vermis cerebelli. Synonym: hemispherium cerebelli, hemispherium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus dentatus cerebelli | The most lateral and largest of the cerebellar nuclei; it receives the axons of the Purkinje cells of the neocerebellum (lateral areas of cerebellar cortex); together with the more medially located globosus and emboliform nuclei it is the major source of fibres composing the massive superior cerebellar peduncle or brachium conjunctivum. Synonym: nucleus dentatus cerebelli, corpus dentatum, dentatum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incisura cerebelli anterior | A wide, shallow notch on the anterior surface of the cerebellum occupied laterally by the superior cerebellar peduncles and the inferior quadrigeminal bodies medially. Synonym: anterior notch of cerebellum, incisura cerebelli anterior, semilunar notch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incisura cerebelli posterior | A narrow notch between the cerebellar hemispheres posteriorly, occupied by the falx cerebelli. Synonym: incisura cerebelli posterior, marsupial notch, posterior notch of cerebellum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tonsilla cerebelli | A rounded lobule on the undersurface of each cerebellar hemisphere, continuous medially with the uvula of the cerebellar vermis. Synonym: tonsilla cerebelli, amygdala cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies inferior hemispherii cerebelli | It rests in the posterior cranial fossa and overlies the medulla; it includes the semilunaris inferior, biventer lobule, cerebellar tonsil, and flocculus. Synonym: facies inferior hemispherii cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies superior hemispherii cerebelli | It lies against the under surface of the tentorium and includes the ala lobuli centralis, quadrangular lobule, simple lobule, and superior semilunar lobule. Synonym: facies superior hemispherii cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
