Figure 4 | Brainstem lesions and acute central vestibular syndrome. Overlap areas of brainstem infarct lesions in 23 patients who presented with an acute vestibular syndrome due to a central rather than a peripheral lesion. MRI data from the literature45,46,47,48,50 are superimposed on four sections of the human brainstem (methods described elsewhere61). a | Overlap area focusing on the medial vestibular nucleus. b | Overlap area focusing on the inferior cerebellar peduncle. c | Overlap area within the medial vestibular nucleus. d | Overlap area within the superior vestibular nucleus and the lateral vestibular nucleus.
