The midbrain consists of the tectum and the tegmentum. The tectum comprises the inferior colliculus and superior colliculus. The tegmentum contains several areas including the periaqueductal gray, mesencephalic reticular formation (aka, deep mesencephalic nucleus), cuneiform nucleus (also commonly referred in rodents as deep mesencephalic nucleus), laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (LDT), pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPT), red nucleus, substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area.
