Cerebellum and Ocular Motor Control
An intact cerebellum is a prerequisite for optimal ocular motor performance. The cerebellum fine-tunes each of the subtypes of eye movements so they work together to bring and maintain images of objects of interest on the fovea. Here we review the major aspects of the contribution of the cerebellum to ocular motor control. The approach will be based on structural-functional correlation, combini...
متن کاملoculAr Motor disorders of the cerebelluM And VestibulAr systeM
InTRoDUCTIon Here we present a bedside approach to patients with vestibular and cerebellar disease emphasizing clinical examination based on pathophysiology. The differentiation between peripheral and central vestibular disorders and precise anatomical localization within the cerebellum are emphasized. A number of specific manoeuvres are illustrated and evaluation of each of the different subcl...
متن کاملOcular motor syndromes of the brainstem and cerebellum.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The brainstem and cerebellum contain many neuronal types that play a critical role in eye movement control. In a physiological approach, understanding how these neuronal assemblies cooperate provides strong insight into general brain functions. Furthermore, eye movements provide an interesting model for understanding neural mechanisms of sensorimotor learning, and a knowledge ...
متن کاملMotor control schemes in the cerebellum and motor cortices
Introduction: The intricacies and complexities of the primate motor control system are simply mind-boggling. This is evident by looking at the magnitude of theories that are continuously being published, refined, and outright rejected on almost a weekly basis. Many times the problem comes down to the limited scope of the investigation. The primate motor control system is so incredibly multi-dim...
متن کاملPredictive Ocular Motor Control in Parkinson's Disease
A comparison was made of predictive eye movements of both the saccadic and pursuit ocular motor systems in parkinsonian patients and aged-matched normal controls. In a predictive task our patients, who were mildly or moderately affected, showed a reduced tendency to make anticipatory saccades compared with normal controls. Although there was some impairment of pursuit during a nonpredictive tas...
