The posterior external arcuate fibers (dorsal external arcuate fibers) take origin in the gracile and cuneate nuclei; they pass to the inferior peduncle of the same side.It is uncertain whether fibers are continued directly from the gracile and cuneate fasciculi into the inferior peduncle.The term cuneocerebellar tract is sometimes used to collectively refer to the posterior external arcuate fibers.The term cuneocerebellar tract is also used to describe an analogue to the dorsal spinocerebellar tract for the upper limbs.
