"Hanna Damasio has produced a neuroanatomical atlas utilizing her vastexperience and knowledge to interpret precisely both cortical and subcorticalstructures. This monumental work provides exact locations of various sulci andgyri in different orientations within the coronal and the axial planes.... Theauthor has devoted a significant portion of her discussion to detailing thevariability of structures observed in computerized images. This outstandingwork... will be a mainstay for all neuroimaging facilities and a guidepost forall involved in in vivo imaging of neural structures. Hanna Damasio must becongratulated for providing the most painstaking and thorough as well assophisticated and timely computerized images depicting human brain anatomy."--Deepak N. Pandya, M.D., Professor of Anatomy and Neurology, Boston UniversitySchool of Medicine, "Brain imaging by computerized tomographic techniques is playing andincreasingly important role in the practice of clinicians and in the analyses ofinvestigators. These new neuroimaging techniques permit clinician and researcherto study in vivo neuroanatomy. Dr. Hanna Damasio has developed a techniquecalled "brain vox". This technique generates three-dimensional reconstructionsof the brain. These reconstructions present the clinician and investigator withsuch fine detail that they can now identify all the major landmarks with thesame degree of precision that previously could only be done on post-mortemexamination. This book, therefore, will be extremely valuable to both cliniciansand researchers." --Kenneth M. Heilman, M.D., The James E. Rooks, Jr. Professorof Neurology, University of Florida College of Medicine, "An excellent source for interpreting cortical brain anatomy in routineand experimental neuroradiological studies....Will be very helpful for moreprecise neuroradiological interpretations of brain lesions in clinical practiceand in the research setting. A wide spectrum of slice orientations are presentedfor several brains. A compendium of brain surface variations are also shown. Assuch this book may serve as a benchmark for interpreting functional neuroimagingstudies. Neurologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, and neuroscientistswill find it valuable in everyday practice. It should be purchased by medicallibraries and clinicians and neuroscientists with an interest in surface brainanatomy and its variations." --Steven U.

Synopsis
Prepared by a world-renowned expert, this atlas of the human brain presents three-dimensional computerized reconstructions of MR scans of living persons., Spectacular recent developments in neuroimaging technologies have vastly increased the amount of information about brain structure that can be obtained from tomographic scans. Prepared by a leading expert in advanced brain-imaging techniques, this unique atlas illustrates the wide range of neuroanatomical variation in a collection of normal human brains in three-dimensional computerized reconstructions of MR scans of living persons. It also provides 100 sections of a single brain so that the same structure presented in the section of one incidence can be identified in the section of another incidence that intersects it. Axial and coronal sections of another brain with a different overall configuration are included at the two most frequently used incidences so that readers will get a sense of the "correction" that they may need to apply to standard images. The atlas is based on a voxel-rendering technique developed in the author's laboratory that permits the reconstruction of the brain in three dimensions with about the same degree of precision in identifying major sulci and gyri that can be achieved at the autopsy table. The images used throughout the atlas have not been beautified; the contours have been left ragged for greater anatomical detail. Thirteen pages of color illustrations are also included. The first of its kind, this atlas will be an essential tool for neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists and neuroscientists, as well as for medical and neuroscience students.
