Lobule VIIIA

  • Location: Lower regions of the cerebellum, extends from midline laterally
  • Description: Best to identify and label the boundary for VIIIB before VIIIA as the lower boundary can be difficult to identify otherwise
    • The fissure between this lobule and Lobule VIIA Crus I is easily identified in the midsagittal slice.
  • This lobule usually consists of one or two white matter branches and its second boundary is characterized by the exclusion of VIIIB which has a distinct curve.
