Basal ganglia lesions produce
contralateral signs.
Cerebellar lesions produce
ipsilateral signs.
Most movement disorders produced by
cerebellar and basal ganglia pathology
disappear during sleep.
Cerebellar and basal ganglia signs are
usually not present if the corticospinal tract
is damaged.
The cerebellum is the great comparator:
1. It compares cortical willful command
with muscle tension, joint position, &
tone (via ipsilateral spinocerebellar tracts)
2. Advises the cortex on how much,
how many, how fast
3. The motor cortex sends the revised
command down the corticospinal tract
The BASAL GANGLIA are the autopilot
for procedural movements.
The CEREBELLUM is the refiner of
finely controlled movements
(particularly of fingers).
