File:Lower pons horizontal KB.svg
Summary
Diagram of a cross-section taken horizontally through the lower part of the pons of a human brainstem and stained with the Kluver-Barrera method. Due to the staining method, white matter (axons) appears blue and gray matter (cell bodies) appears light gray.
Notes:
- Anterior is down, posterior is up.
- The spinal tract of the trigeminal nerve can sometimes be seen surrounding the spinal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve, but it was impossible to distingusih from the inferior cerebellar peduncle on the original slide.
- The spinal lemniscus (including the spinothalamic tract) and trapezoid body also could not be distinguished but probably lie anteromedially to the superior olivary nucleus, blending in with the central tegmental tract and medial lemniscus.
- The pontine reticular formation (#9) and pontine nuclei (#22) are large, diffuse structures.
