Description

The Brain Atlas: A Visual Guide to the Human Central Nervous System gives students of Medicine and Neurtoscience and health care professionals a comprehensive, accurate, and breattakingly beautiful picture of the human brain. Prepared by renowned scholars and clinicians to exacting standards by drawing on classical neuroanatomical sections, state of the art neuroimaging, and cutting edge computer-aided design, The Brain Atlas is destined to become an essential field guide and an invaluable reference for all who seek to understand the human brain and treat human brain disorders. The Brain Atlas has many unique features: Nearly 400 exquisite images (many of them life size) in a clean and inituitive format offering students and practitioners a beautiful and thoroughly integrated view; Extensive use of carefully matched MRIs and other radiological images complement classical sections and directly relate brain structure to clinical settings; The unique uncluttered labeling system facilities learning Neuroanatomy while providing easy to use self-testing for board review and exam preparation; Brain pathways are depicted on actual brain sections for dramatic, accurate three-dimensional conceptualizations; Blood vessel territories in the brain are outlined by color overlays offering a clear and concise picture of brain blood supply.
