1
New cards

Medial longitudinal fasciculus

Bilateral connections with the extraocular nucleus (CNs 3, 4, and 6) and superior colliculus, influencing eye and head movements.

2
New cards

Vestibulospinal tracts

Both medial and lateral, to lower motor neurons that influence posture.

3
New cards

Vestibulocollic pathways

To the nucleus of the spinal accessory nerve, influencing head positions

4
New cards

Vestibulothalamocorical pathways

To the vestibulocerebellum, which controls the magnitude of muscle responses to vestibular information (including the gain of the vestibule-ocular reflexes)

5
New cards

Vestibuloreticular pathways

To the reticular formation, influencing the reticulospinal tracts and automatic centers for nausea and vomiting

6
New cards

Vestibular cortex output

Conscious awareness of head position and movement (Vestibulothalamocortical)

7
New cards

Extraocular nuclei output

Eye movements (Medial longitudinal fasciculus)

8
New cards

Superior colliculus accessory nerve output

Head movement (vestibulocollic)

9
New cards

Cerebral cortex. Spinal cord. Reticular formation output

Posture of head and body (Vestibulospinal)

10
New cards

Reticular formation output

Nausea and vomiting. Altered conscious (Vestibuloreticular)
