Damage to Medial Cerebellum
1) Lack of coordination of axial musculature
2) Gait Disturbance
3) Ocular dysmetria (misjudging distance)
Damage ot lateral cerebellum
Uncoordinated limbs
Cerebullar mov’t influence
Mid-course corrections in voluntary movement
Basal ganglia mov’t influence
1) Suppresses unwanted cortical activty
2) Facilitates wanted cortical activity (i.e. voluntary mov’t)
Areas of basal ganglia lesion in PD
Substantia nigra
Areas of basal ganglia lesioned in Huntington’s
Caudate, putman nuclei
Parts of basal ganglia
1) Input nuclei
2) Output Nuclei
3) Intrinsic Nuclei (connecting input and output)
4) Modulatory nuclei (gatekeeping on electrical activity in input nuclei.
