From Anatomy to Function of the Central Nervous System: Clinical and Neurosurgical Applications

From Anatomy to Function of the Central Nervous System: Clinical and Neurosurgical Applications features neuroradiologic images that represent today, one of the most effective resources able to detect the anatomy of the nerve structures. Simultaneously featuring neuroimages, readers can study the functional aspects of the entire central nervous system with detailed captions that describe in detail how to use and interpret them. This book includes images of the brain dissected with the Klingler’s method and white matter fiber dissection. By integrating the anatomo-functional description with the synaptic organization of the CNS, this reference is useful for anyone who wants to understand how the activity of a nerve structure arises, describing its microstructure, neurotransmitter phenotype, and neural activity. It also features descriptions of pathologic conditions which result from neuroanatomical and/or neurofunctional alterations and includes neurosurgical aspects. Integrates anatomo-functional descriptions with the synaptic and neurochemical organization of the CNSAllows readers to better understand the morphology and topography of encephalic structuresFeatures neuroradiological images and human brain dissections using the Klingler’s methodChapters have references (key article, book, and protocols) for additional detailed studies INDICE: Section I: Development, topography and neurochemistry of the central nervous system1.
