1. Pertaining to the connection between the inferior colliculus or superior colliculus and the geniculate nucleus.
   • 1963, Louis Hausman, Clinical Neuroanatomy, with a Method of Brain Reconstruction, page 40:

     Some of the cells of the inferior colliculi send commissural fibers to the opposite colliculus; others send colliculogeniculate fibers (inferior brachium) to the medial geniculate body of the thalamus; some to the superior colliculus (acustico-optic fibers) and some to the cerebellum (tectocerebellar fibers).

   • 2012, D. Kent Morest, ‎Jeffery A. Winer, The Comparative Anatomy of Neurons:

     These may correspond to the thin colliculogeniculate endings previously described in the cat ventral nucleus (Morest 1975: Fig. 7, top) and, perhaps, to the phalangiform axons seen in the dorsal division (W iner かつ Morest 1984).

   • 2013, William D. Neff -, Contributions to Sensory Physiology, page 62:

     These data suggest that at birth the colliculogeniculate projection is more mature than the corticogeniculate projection but less developed than the retinogeniculate pathway.
