Imaging Anatomy of the Human Brain by Neil M. Borden; Scott E. Forseen; Cristian Stefan " A] very fine and detailed anatomic atlas... Dr. Borden et al. present an excellent atlas done basically by neuroradiologists' but with a very rich content, which is highly instructive also for neurologists and neurosurgeons, given the major importance of neuroradiological imaging in both practices." --Guilherme Carvalhal Ribas, MD, University of S√ o Paulo Medical School, Neurosurgery " A]n outstanding anatomic reference textbook... do yourself a favor and either purchase this book for your own library or select it for your department' s library. For proof of its value, examine it at the next ASNR or RSNA. You will be convinced. The bulk of the information in the book will never be out of date." --American Journal of Neuroradiology "I was very happy to be able to review this wonderful resource, which is packed with information and illustrations... The illustrations in this atlas are remarkable...I believe this text would be a valuable reference for any neurodiagnostic laboratory as neurodiagnostic techs move into more collaborative roles as part of the patient care team. I would highly recommend it." --Kathy Johnson, R. EEG/EP T., RPSGT, FASET, The Neurodiagnostic Journal "This atlas provides high quality images of the brain and adjacent structures in MR, CT, and neonatal ultrasound. The images are clearly labeled with a thorough index to allow for cross referencing between modalities... the inclusion of higher-end imaging such as fMRI, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and CT perfusion makes for a complete neuroanatomy atlas that will be useful for a long time... Weighted Numerical Score: 99 - 5 Stars " -- Joel M Fritz, MD, Baystate Medical Center, Doody's Reviews "This volume presents a detailed and beautifully illustrated tour of neuroanatomy, employing' standard and advanced modalities' Ample use of color illustrates fiber tracts and differentiates different nuclei and other structures. The sections are amply labeled and easy to follow, allowing the reader to become familiar with cognate areas on images of multiple techniques." -- Carl E. Stafstrom, Division of Pediatric Neurology, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Journal of Pediatric Epilepsy An Atlas for the 21st Century The most precise, cutting-edge images of normal cerebral anatomy available today are the centerpiece of this spectacular atlas for clinicians, trainees, and students in the neurologically-based medical and non-medical specialties. Truly an "atlas for the 21st century," this comprehensive visual reference presents a detailed overview of cerebral anatomy acquired through the use of multiple imaging modalities including advanced techniques that allow visualization of structures not possible with conventional MRI or CT. Beautiful color illustrations using 3-D modeling techniques based upon 3D MR volume data sets further enhances understanding of cerebral anatomy and spatial relationships. The anatomy in these color illustrations mirror the black and white anatomic MR images presented in this atlas. Written by two neuroradiologists and an anatomist who are also prominent educators, along with more than a dozen contributors, the atlas begins with a brief introduction to the development, organization, and function of the human brain. What follows is more than 1,000 meticulously presented and labelled images acquired with the full complement of standard and advanced modalities currently used to visualize the human brain and adjacent structures, including MRI, CT, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) with tractography, functional MRI, CTA, CTV, MRA, MRV, conventional 2-D catheter angiography, 3-D rotational catheter angiography, MR spectroscopy, and ultrasound of the neonatal brain. The vast array of data that these modes of imaging provide o

Human anatomy and physiology : for undergradutae students of pharmacy, nursing, physiotherapy and other paramedical sciences by Ms. Vipula, Ms. Atula Learning and increasing knowledge in human anatomy and physiology has been a perennial need of undergraduate students of pharmacy, nursing, physiotherapy and other paramedical sciences. Though there are several books on this subject, the authors have made an appreciable attempt to write the book, Human Anatomy and Physiology to meet their ever-growing requirement in this faculty. The book, which has been presented in a simple, interesting and self-explanatory manner, has 17 chapters, each of them focusing and elucidating the points of studies in a way as demanded by those who want to increase their knowledge in the subject.

Anatomy and Physiology Made Incredibly Visual! by Janyce G. Dyer (Editor); Springhouse Publishing Company Staff; Lippincott Williams and Wilkins Staff Anatomy & Physiology Made Incredibly Visual is an innovative new reference that brings clinical subjects to life using a vivid, graphic presentation. Like the Incredibly Easy series, the Incredibly Visual series takes difficult clinical topics and presents them in a clear, concise, easy-to-understand manner. The highly visual nature of this book makes anatomy and physiology fundamentals accessible to the reader in a unique and interesting way that enables quick review and comprehension as well as practical application. For each body system, the book logically first presents anatomic fundamentals necessary to understand the complex physiology of the body. Then physiologic processes are presented more visually than ever before. This new approach to clinical content maximizes the power of visual thinking by getting readers as close to the clinical content as they can get without actually being in the room with a patient. Complex ideas are broken down into their component parts, with each component made unmistakably simple in appealingly colorful and graphic ways. Readers will read less, understand more, and see things more clearly than ever before. A companion website is available with fully-searchable text.
