Canine Brain — Ventrolateral View

Ventrolateral view of a dog half-brain. The pyramids (pyr) emerge form the pons and run beside the midline along the ventral surface of the myelencephalon. The trapezoid body (yellow pic) is indicated. Cranial nerve locations are marked with colored pics: abducent (pink), facial (blue), vestibulocochlear (green), glossopharyngeal, vagus, and accessory (white), and hypoglossal (orange). The trigeminal nerve (red) emerges from the metencephalon. To return to the sheep brain, click here.
