Book The Cartographic Atlas of the Brain

Download or read book The Cartographic Atlas of the Brain written by Paulo Abdo do Seixo Kadri and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-23 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuroanatomy is considered one of the most complex subjects in the field of anatomy. The reliable literature for students is limited to classical anatomical books, many of them re-editions of publications from the previous century, with black-and-white illustrations or computer-generated images. In this sense, the literature lacks a neuroanatomical atlas depicting the brain's surface anatomy and intrinsic anatomy with actual anatomical preparations. This illustrated and concise book is designed to fill the gap by providing high-quality photographs of actual anatomical preparations of the entire central nervous system. It is organized into eight chapters and presents high-definition photographs of thoroughly labeled anatomical preparations. The Cartographic Atlas of the Brain is intended to benefit medical students, residents and practitioners of Neurology, Neurosurgery, Neuroanatomy, Radiology, Neurobiology and other branches of the Neurosciences.

Book Topographic Brain Mapping of EEG and Evoked Potentials

Download or read book Topographic Brain Mapping of EEG and Evoked Potentials written by Konrad Maurer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaging procedures have been used for many years and are becoming increasingly important in a number of medical disciplines. This is due to recent technological advances, primarily computerization. The meth ods employed in CNS diagnostics are collectively referred to as "neu roimaging" and include procedures for investigating both cerebral morphology and cerebral function, such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomogra phy (PET), and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Topographic mapping of electroencephalograms (EEG) and evoked potentials represents one of the functional procedures and per mits topographic imaging of EEG, evoked potentials, and magnetic fields. The latter application includes not only magnetic fields evoked by stimuli relating to different sensory modalities, but also endogenous and motor fields resulting from spontaneous brain magnetic activity, as recorded by magnetoencephalograms (MEG), the magnetic comple ment of the EEG. The advantage of recording electric and magnetic fields over other neuroimaging procedures is that these techniques are completely noninvasive and have extremely short analysis times (in the millisecond range). The aim of this book is to clarify the current state of this emerging technology, to assess its potential for substantive contributions to brain research, to delineate areas for further research and, over all, to envis age clinical applications in disciplines such as psychiatry, neurology, and neuropsychology.

Book excerpt: Your brain is a collection of maps. That is no metaphor: scrawled across your brain's surfaces are actual schematic images of the sights, sounds, and actions that hold the key to your survival. Scientists first began uncovering these maps over a century ago, but we are only now beginning to unlock their secrets. Our inner cartography distorts and shapes our experience of the world, supporting complex thought, and making technology-enabled mind-reading a reality. The maps in our brain raise important questions about what is real, what is fair, and what is private. They shine a light on our past and our possible futures, and invite us to view ourselves from a startling new perspective. In Brainscapes, Rebecca Schwarzlose combines unforgettable real-life stories, cutting-edge research, and vivid illustrations to reveal brain maps' surprising lessons about our place in the world - and the world's place within us.

Book The Allen Reference Atlas   Book   CD ROM

Download or read book The Allen Reference Atlas Book CD ROM written by Hong Wei Dong and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2008-01-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “… this atlas acts not only as a key companion to the Allen Reference Atlas but also as a harbinger of things to come.” –Genes, Brain and Behavior, 2010 The best resource available for brain research! The Allen Reference Atlas is available for the first time in this lavishly produced, full-color print edition. This exciting new resource provides users with a meticulously selected and compiled collection of key information from the highly successful web-based Allen Brain Atlas, the now-famous online mouse brain anatomical atlas and gene expression database (www.brain-map.org). Including both coronal and sagittal mouse brain sectional views, these finely detailed brain map images have been carefully chosen for maximum utility and information content, and are presented as full-color plates on pages with corresponding text labels and lists of selected genetic markers. Every brain structure annotated in the Atlas is assigned a distinct color based on its hierarchical position in the brain, which not only provides stunning visual effects to emphasize brain organization, but also facilitates unique definition and segmentation, which is critical to informatics processing and computer-generated 3D reconstruction in the online Allen Brain Atlas. In addition, more than eighty genes showing unique expression patterns in the brain were carefully selected and are presented with the brain map images as molecular markers, for substantially increasing the accuracy of brain structure delineations. The brain map images are the heart and soul of the Allen Reference Atlas, but also included are extremely useful text materials such as thoughtfully annotated nomenclature tables, comprehensive indices, lists of abbreviations, and a thorough and up-to-date bibliography. A free accompanying CD-ROM contains all of the Atlas images in a black-and-white format, perfect for quick reference and use in presentations. The Allen Reference Atlas is a valuable addition to the reference libraries of millions of neuro-scientists, molecular biologists, genomicists, genomics researchers, informaticians, informatics researchers, and many other scientists for whom beautifully developed and perfectly accurate brain reference images are an indispensable tool. The Allen Institute for Brain Science is an independent, 501(c)(3) non-profit medical research organization dedicated to performing innovative basic research on the brain and distributing its discoveries to researchers around the world. Through its efforts, the Institute aims to advance understanding of the brain in health and disease and have a positive, long-lasting impact on brain science. The Institute was established by philanthropist Paul G. Allen and Jody Allen Patton. Available in print format (with CD-ROM), as DVD edition, and as comprehensive reference set.
