Description
Serial sections - 2 mm thick - of the cerebral hemispheres and diencephalon in the coronal, sagittal, and horizontal planes. So as to point out the level of the sections more accurately, each is shown from different angles -- emphasising the surrounding hemisphere surfaces. This 3D approach has proven to be extremely useful when apprehending the difficult anatomy of the gyri and sulci of the brain. Certain complex cerebral structures such as the occipital lobe, the deep grey matter and the vascularization are studied here in greater detail. This second edition has been completely revised and updated, 44 serial sections have been added, while old MRI figures have been replaced by newer ones.
Reviews / Votes
"... The book ... ist highly interesting for neurosurgeons ... This atlas is worth looking at and should definitely find its place in ervery neurosurgeons's bookshelf." Neurosurgical Review 30/2007"This wonderful atlas by Duvernoy and colleagues is a must in every institute dealing with neurological patients and neuroimaging. The atlas is very meticulously made. A correlation is given between MRI and morphology ... The atlas is very good in giving the precise localisation ..." Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery Reviews of the first edition "... This atlas will be extremely precious for neurologist, neurosurgeons, and neuroradiologists." Acta Neurologica Belgica "... What differentiates this textbook of anatomy from standard neuroanatomical textbooks is its presentation of the brain slices in such a way as to allow for better 3-D visualization of the anatomy ... The quality of the MR images and photographs of the anatomical sections is excellent ..." Journal of Neurosurgery
