cerebellar vermis in dogs

A subregion of the cerebellar cortex, consisting of the most medial zone of the cerebellar cortex, stradding the midline. May be continuous with the lateral cerebellar hemispheres in some areas of the cerebellum, e.g., dorsally, or separated by deeper fissures in others (e.g., ventrally). Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the cerebellar vermis is

A subregion of the cerebellar cortex, consisting of the most medial zone of the cerebellar cortex, stradding the midline. May be continuous with the lateral cerebellar hemispheres in some areas of the cerebellum, e.g., dorsally, or separated by deeper fissures in others (e.g., ventrally). The atlas records it as a nerve at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the cerebellar vermis is

It sits within the nervous system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

What the cerebellar vermis connects to

The atlas records 12 typed relationships for it, across 7 kinds of connection. part of anatomical entity, brain and cerebellar cortex, and 1 more.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the cerebellar vermis. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as cerebellum vermis, vermal parts of the cerebellum, vermal regions, vermis cerebelli [I-X], vermis of cerebellum and vermis of cerebellum [I-X], and 2 more. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the cerebellar vermis?

It sits within the nervous system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

What does the cerebellar vermis connect to?

Part of: anatomical entity, brain, cerebellar cortex and nervous system.

Is the cerebellar vermis the same in other species?

This page describes the dog. The human record of the same structure sits beside it on /compare, over one shared model rather than two atlases built separately.
