Abstract
Using diffusion tensor tractography, we attempted to investigate and identify the anatomy of the dorsal spinocerebellar tract (SCT) in the human brain. We recruited 26 healthy volunteers. The dorsal SCT was determined by selection of fibers passing through three regions of interest. We found that all dorsal SCTs terminated in the ipsilateral cerebellum; in contrast, in 25 (48%) of 52 hemispheres, the dorsal SCT crossed into the contralateral hemisphere via the vermis of the anterior lobe.
