Excerpt
In the interval between the mid-to-late 1940s and the mid-to-late 1960s, there were a number of research papers that utilized anatomical and physiological techniques (for example [1–5]) to describe the patterns of cerebellar corticonuclear projections. The physiological techniques were contemporary for the day and the anatomical methods relied on the relatively new silver impregnation of Nauta and Gygax [3]. All of these authors referenced the studies of Jansen and Brodal [8, 9] which used the Marchi method. In these works, the corticonuclear patterns were generally described as forming “longitudinal zones,” “cortico-nuclear zones,” or “functional zones.” This terminology represented a clear movement to recognize, formalize, and rationalize the basic features of the patterns that were described by Jansen and Brodal. …
