About this title

Synopsis

University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. Neuroradiological atlas of brain function, for neurologists. Includes a 27-page glossary of structures and definitions. Halftone scans laid out next to labeled drawings to allow identification and comparison. DNLM: Brain anatomy & histology - atlases.

From the Back Cover

This atlas is an outstanding single-volume resource of information on the structure and function of specific areas of the brain. Updated to reflect the latest technology using 3 Tesla MR images, this edition has been enhanced with new functional MRI studies as well as a new section on diffusion tensor imaging with three-dimensional reconstructions of fiber tracts using color coding to demonstrate neural pathways.

Highlights:

• Glossary of neuroanatomic structures and definitions provides the reader with a foundation in structures, function, and functional relationships
• High-quality images are divided into five sections, including Sagittal MRI views, Axial MRI views, Coronal MRI views, Fiber-Tracking Diffusion Tensor Imaging, and Three-Dimensional MRI views
• Icons rapidly orient the reader with the location of each view or the diffusion pathway

This book eliminates the need to sift through multiple books for the current information on the structure and function of the brain. It is invaluable for clinicians in radiology, neuroradiology, neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, psychology, neuropsychology, and neuroanatomy. The atlas is also ideal for medical students, nursing students, and individuals seeking to gain a firm understanding of human brain anatomy and function.
