These are termed the nucleus emboliformis, the nucleus globosus, and the nucleus fastigii. The nu- cleus emboliformis or embolus is a small lamina of gray matter which lies just medial to the hilus of the nucleus dentatus, being thus related to it some- what in the same manner that the medial accessory olivary nucleus is related to the main inferior olivary nucleus.

The nucleus globosus lies medial to the nucleus emboliformis and on a somewhat deeper horizontal plane. The nucleus fastigii or roof nucleus is placed in the white substance of the vermis close to the median plane and its fellow of the opposite side. It is, therefore, situated on the medial aspect of the nucleus globosus. Inferior olivary nucleu Fig. 511.âSagittal Section through the Left Lateral Hemisphere of the Cerebellum.

Jamieson in the Anatomical Department of the University of Edinburgh. The nucleus dentatus is displayed from above and the brachium conjunctivum has been traced from it to the mesencephalon. The nucleus dentatus and the emboliform nucleus present a structure very similar to that of the inferior olivary nucleus. In the nucleus globosus and the nucleus fastigii the cells are some- what larger in size. Cerebellar Peduncles. -These are three in number on each side, viz., the 38.
