inferior cerebellar peduncle

Regional part of medullary white matter (according to Neuronames) primarily found at the level of the open medulla, consisting of a large bundle of fibers projecting to and projecting from the cerebellum. The icp is continuous with the dorsal spinocerebellar tract and also contains a large number of fibers originating in the inferior olivary complex (MM). Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the inferior cerebellar peduncle is

Regional part of medullary white matter (according to Neuronames) primarily found at the level of the open medulla, consisting of a large bundle of fibers projecting to and projecting from the cerebellum. The icp is continuous with the dorsal spinocerebellar tract and also contains a large number of fibers originating in the inferior olivary complex (MM). The atlas records it as a nerve at the organ scale in the human body.

Where the inferior cerebellar peduncle 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 inferior cerebellar peduncle connects to

The atlas records 4 typed relationships for it, across 3 kinds of connection. part of medulla oblongata.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the inferior cerebellar peduncle. 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 corpus restiforme, restiform body, crus cerebelli ad medullam oblongatam, crus medullo-cerebellare, inferior cerebellar peduncle (Ridley) and inferior cerebellar peduncle (restiform body), and 3 more. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the inferior cerebellar peduncle?

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 inferior cerebellar peduncle connect to?

Part of: medulla oblongata.

Is the inferior cerebellar peduncle the same in other species?

Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
