There are five long, often branched, rays attached round the edge of the tegmen.

The specimen is composed of a single isolated tegmen which is preserved as a compression fossil in sedimentary rock.

Hyperventilation can occur when the brain stem or tegmentum is damaged.

It is a bundle of fibers and cells in the pontine tegmentum.

It passes through the lateral hypothalamus, with some carrying on into the tegmentum.

The tegmentum (from Latin for "covering") is a general area within the brainstem.

In embryos the tegmentum is the anterior half of the neural tube.

The dorsal area of this is the mesopontine tegmentum.

The trapezoid body, involved in binaural hearing, is part of the pontine tegmentum.

It is located in the tegmentum of the midbrain next to the substantia nigra.

This is contrasted with the tegmentum, which refers to the region ventral to the ventricular system.

The second part is the tegmentum and is ventral to the cerebral aqueduct.

It is located in the pontine tegmentum.

Other pertinent areas of the tegmentum are:

The region includes the midbrain tegmentum, crus cerebri and pretectum.

The tegmentum is the location of several cranial nerve (CN) nuclei.

The nucleus is situated in the caudal portion of the ventrolateral pontine tegmentum.

Atticus is the part of the tegmentum tympani where the stapes and incus are attached.

It also represents a part of the mesolimbic pathway, carrying information between the ventral tegmentum and the nucleus accumbens.

This was further narrowed down to show that the central midbrain tegmentum is the region that plays a role in cortical activation.

The Interpeduncular nucleus is an unpaired, ovoid cell group at the base of the midbrain tegmentum.

Kelly and co-workers, in turn, postulated that the tegmentum near the periaqueductal grey contains the integrating mechanism for emotional expression.

Vascular lesions - tegmentum of the midbrain (Benedickt's syndrome)

The tract is a continuation of the medial forebrain bundle in the lateral portion of the tegmentum.

Neurons of the tegmentum have firing properties that make them strong candidates for regulating DSC.

In animal studies, lesions of the pontine tegmentum greatly reduce or even eliminate REM sleep.

Groups of dopaminergic neurons located more dorsally and posteriorly in the tegmentum are of the same type without forming true nuclei.
