The Surfaces of the cerebellum and brain stem
Anterior aspect
The brain stem has been cut transversely through the mesencephalon. The right cerebellar hemisphere has been stripped of meninges and vessels to expose the pattern of cerebellar folia and sulci. The basilar artery has been removed, but the cut ends of pontine and mesencephalic branches as well as the superior cerebellar arteries have been left.
