Download or read book Neuronavigation and Neuroanatomy written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuronavigation enables the surgeon to define each cranial and cerebral structure before and during surgery but the problem of brainshifting remains. This atlas shows drawings of anatomical landmarks for neuronavigation for preoperative planning. The authors show the relationships between bony landmarks which are unchanged during the operation, and landmarks which are no more available after opening of the skull but still recognizable during the operation, e.g. by ultrasonic sector scan. It further includes the description of many important anatomical variants, which are important for microsurgeons when using minimal invasive modern techniques (endoscopy, sterotaxy) to avoid errors and complications. The book describes unknown projections for MRI and CT which may be adapted for special surgical problems. The anatomical drawings are the result of a twenty-five-years study of the topographical anatomy of the brain and the surrounding structures combined with the experience of modern microsurgery.

Download or read book ATLAS of NEUROANATOMY written by Dr Mohamed T. El-Rakhawy and published by المكتب المصري الحديث. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the Nervous System is -undoubtedly- becoming a very important field in Medical Studies. Without a good basis in Neuro-anatomy the interpretation of neurologic signs and symptoms in Clinical Medicine would be a very difficult -if not an impossible- task. In all leading Universites the “Anatomical Sciences” are now tought in the form of three, more or less, separate - but nevertheless allied - disciplines : 1. Gross morphology of the human body, excluding the brain. This forms the subject of Gross Anatomy “proper”. 2. Neuro-anatomy which entalis the study of the gross morphology of the brain and spinal cord, as well as the study of their connections and tracts (a subject now called Tractology). 3. Histology and Embryology; the microscope being an important tool to study and understand both subjects. I am however, convinced that the most logical and the most productive approach to the study of the Nervous System is to combine the viewpoints of three closely dependent subjects: Neuro-anatomy, Neuro-physiology as well as a basis of Clinical Neurology. It has been my practice in conducting my lectures to place considerable emphasis on the “clinical aspects”; I feel this is important as it strengthens motivation and gives the students a reason for learning their anatomical sciences in general and their Neuro-anatomy in practical. It has been my aim to place at the disposal of the medical students a book of convenient size which will provide them with a working knowledge on Neurology and also to select for them, from the great accumulation of material, the least but the most effective methods of dealing with the Nervous System. This book is not meant to be an exhausive treatise on Neuro-anatomy. I only hope that it will offer a good basis of structure and function which will be of value in understanding how the brain and spinal cord function. I believe that the best textbook cannot take the place of a good lecture; yet I do also believe that the provision of well-planned illustrations is, perhaps, more important in understanding the different - and perhaps also difficult - connections of the Nervous System than in any other branch of medicine. The illustrations are presented in such a way that they clarify - and even amplify - the text.
Download or read book The Human Brain and Spinal Cord written by Lennart Heimer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written to serve both as a guide for the dissection of the human brain and as an illustrated compendium of the functional anatomy of the brain and spinal cord. In this sense, the book represents an updated and expanded version of the book The Human Brain and Spinal Cord written by the author and published in Swedish by Scandinavian University Books in 1961. The complicated anatomy of the brain can often be more easily appreciated and understood in relation to its development. Some insight about the coverings of the brain will also make the brain dissections more meaningful. Introductory chapters on these subjects constitute Part I of the book. Part 2 is composed of the dissection guide, in which text and illustrations are juxtaposed as much as possible in order to facilitate the use of the book in the dissection room. The method of dissection is similar to dissection proce dures used in many medical schools throughout the world, and variations of the technique have been published by several authors including Ivar Broman in the "Manniskohjarnan" (The Human Brain) published by Gleerups F6rlag, Lund, 1926, and Laszlo Komaromy in "Dissection of the Brain," published by Akademiai Kiado, Budapest, 1947. The great popularity of the CT scanner justifies an extra laboratory session for the comparison of nearly horizontal brain sections with matching CT scans.

Download or read book Clinical Neuroanatomy written by Hans J. ten Donkelaar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-18 with total page 988 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connections define the functions of neurons: information flows along connections, as well as growth factors and viruses, and even neuronal death can progress through connections. Accordingly, knowing how the various parts of the brain are interconnected to form functional systems is a prerequisite for properly understanding data from all fields in the neurosciences. Clinical Neuroanatomy: Brain Circuitry and Its Disorders bridges the gap between neuroanatomy and clinical neurology. It focuses on human and primate data in the context of brain circuitry disorders, which are so common in neurological practice. In addition, numerous clinical cases are presented to demonstrate how normal brain circuitry can be interrupted, and what the effects are. Following an introduction to the organization and vascularization of the human brain and the techniques used to study brain circuitry, the main neurofunctional systems are discussed, including the somatosensory, auditory, visual, motor, autonomic and limbic systems, the cerebral cortex and complex cerebral functions. In this 2nd edition, apart from a general updating, many new illustrations have been added and more emphasis is placed on modern techniques such as diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) and network analysis. Moreover, a developmental ontology based on the prosomeric model is applied, resulting in a more modern subdivision of the brain. The new edition of Clinical Neuroanatomy is primarily intended for neurologists, neuroradiologists and neuropathologists, as well as residents in these fields, but will also appeal to (neuro)anatomists and all those whose work involves human brain mapping.
