NEUROIMAGING: ANATOMY MEETS FUNCTION 2017

Provides the basic anatomy of major fiber tracts and their functions Offers accessible information on protocols and sequences of the areas of interest Helps readers interpret findings in relation to patients’ symptoms This book combines classic MR anatomy with current understanding of human brain function Recent advances in neuroscience have highlighted the importance of correlating brain anatomy with underlying brain function, since the brain contains a highly sophisticated organization of anatomical and functional relationships that are not readily “visible” with standard imaging The use of magnetic resonance imaging is rapidly increasing in the field of neuroscience, and remains at the forefront for offering insights into the normal and pathologic structure and function of the human brain
