Abducens Nucleus -Motor neurons to lateral rectus m. -Interneurons send fibers to MLF What is the ~location of the: MLF? PPRF? Abducens Nucleus? Abducens Nerve Fibers? Rostral Medulla Level

MLF – en route to midbrain extraocular motor neuclei What is the ~location of the MLF? Rostral Pons Level

What is the ~location of the MLF? Rostral Pons Level

What is the ~location of the: MLF? Trochlear Nucleus? Caudal Midbrain Level

What is the ~location of the: Superior Colliculi? Superior Colliculi Commissure? MLF? Oculomotor Nucleus? Oculomotor Nerve Fibers? Rostral Midbrain Level

What is the ~location of the: MLF? Superior Colliculi? Superior Colliculi - receives impulses from retina & visual cortex - sends axons to Edinger-Westphal nucleus for lens accommodation Rostral Midbrain Level

pretectal area - a synaptic center for light reflexes - receives input from retina -sends axons to Edinger-Westphal nucleus for pupillary light response posterior commissure - dorsal to cerebral aqueduct = decussation of fibers between pretectal nuclei -> bilateral (consensual) light response What is the ~location of the: Superior Colliculi? Brachium of the Superior Colliculus? Pretectal Area? Posterior Commissure? brachium of superior colliculus -optic tract fibers that bypass lateral geniculate nucleus to reach pretectal area & superior colliculus Rostral Midbrain Level

Edinger-Westphal nucleus - in oculomotor complex (pale part) - a preganglionic parasympathetic nucleus - receives fibers from the pretectal area & superior colliculi - sends axons via III C. N. to ciliary ganglion for pupillary constriction and lens accommodation oculomotor nerve fibers - axons from Edinger-Westphal nucleus to ciliary ganglion What is the ~location of the: Edinger-Wesphal Nucleus? Superior Colliculi? Rostral Midbrain Level
