Atlas of Brain Function

Product Full Description

Atlas of Brain Function | Atlas of Brain Function" is a comprehensive and visually rich resource that delves into the intricate structures and functionalities of the human brain. Authored by William W. Orrison Jr., this second edition has been meticulously updated to incorporate the latest advancements in neuroimaging technology, notably utilizing 3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to provide high-resolution images. The atlas is organized into five distinct sections: Sagittal MRI views, Axial MRI views, Coronal MRI views, Fiber-Tracking Diffusion Tensor Imaging, and Three-Dimensional MRI views. Each section offers detailed visual representations, accompanied by concise descriptions that elucidate the anatomical and functional aspects of specific brain regions. A notable enhancement in this edition is the inclusion of functional MRI studies and a dedicated section on diffusion tensor imaging, featuring three-dimensional reconstructions of neural pathways with color-coded fiber tracts. These additions provide readers with a deeper understanding of the brain's connectivity and functional dynamics. The atlas also features a glossary of over 300 neuroanatomic structures and definitions, serving as a foundational reference for readers to comprehend complex terminologies and their functional relationships. High-quality images throughout the book are complemented by icons that rapidly orient the reader to the location of each view or diffusion pathway. This single-volume atlas is invaluable for clinicians in radiology, neuroradiology, neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, psychology, neuropsychology, and neuroanatomy. It also serves as an ideal resource for medical students, nursing students, and individuals seeking to gain a firm understanding of human brain anatomy and function. , ISBN no:- 9781588905253, Author:- Orrison, Edition:- 1st Edition, Publication Year:- 2008, Publisher:- Thieme, Page No:- 316, Banding Types:- Paperback, Replacement:- Returnable upto 3days (*T&C applied)
