Overview

This dual atlas aims at illustrating the anatomy of the brain and its appearance on MR images using a simple and effective mode of presentation. Following an introductory chapter, ""Comprehensive anatomy of the human brain"", the book is divided into a morphological and a functional imaging section. The morphological atlas presents 3D surface images followed by high-definition MR sections acquired in the axial, coronal, and sagittal planes. The MR images are paired with the corresponding anatomical images to enable their clinical correlation. The functional atlas includes illustrative MR images showing cortical activation in various functional areas (including the auditory, motor, visual, and language areas).

Reviews

From the reviews: This ia a high quality publication - paper, images and the use of colour in fMRI images is exemplary. ... As an atlas it is useful and very good value for the price. and the written chapter will never fail to amuse. Information and a laugh - now how often do you find that in a radiological text? RAD Magazine, July 2006, pp. 32 This book presents correlations between morphology and functional anatomy of the brain, as an atlas ! . The authors have achieved a nice and clear synopsis of the actual knowledge and possibilities of functional imaging of the anatomy of the brain. This book will be an interesting basis for neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, physiologists interested in neurophysiology, but also psychiatrists ! and it will also be useful for showing to the students the relevance of the anatomy of the central nervous system. (AC Tobenas, Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, Vol. 29 (2), 2007) A resource that answers the call of functional neuroradiology training. ! The material is directed at radiologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, and other clinical neuroscientists. The Atlas is intended as a reference and teaching tool for medical students and residents, using cadaveric specimens to reinforce anatomy ! . provides an efficient and useful way to identify sulcal and gyral landmarks that one may encounter in day-to-day clinical practice. ! All in all, the Atlas is a useful addition to the neuroradiologist's library of brain anatomy texts. (American Journal of Neuroradiology, Vol. 28, August, 2007)
