See the matched myelin stained section in Plates 93A and B


The white matter in this cell body stained section and other sections in this specimen have a uniformly sparse population
of proliferating glia. Refer to the matching myelin stained section for the approximate locations of both corticospinal
tracts, the medial longitudinal fasciculus, the rubrospinal, lateral reticulospinal, vestibulospinal, tectospinal, intraspinal,
and spinocephalic tracts.
