Front Cover
Wolters Kluwer Health, 2015 - Medical - 348 pages
Neuroanatomy in Clinical Context , Ninth Edition provides everything the student needs to master the anatomy of the central nervous system, all in a clinical setting. Clear explanations;
abundant MRI, CT, MRA, and MRV images; full-color photographs and illustrations; hundreds of review questions; and supplemental online resources combine to provide a sound anatomical base for integrating neurobiological and clinical concepts. In thus applying neuroanatomy clinically, the atlas ensures student preparedness for exams and for rotations. This authoritative approach--combined with such salutary features as full-color stained sections, extensive cranial nerve cross-referencing, and systems neurobiology coverage--sustains the legacy of this revolutionary teaching and learning tool as the neuroanatomy atlas.
New and hallmark features elucidate neuroanatomy and systems neurobiology for course success!
  • NEW! Chapter on Herniation Syndromes decodes the elegant relationship between brain injury and resulting deficit.
  • NEW! Clinical information integrated throughout the text is screened in blue for quick identification on the page.
  • NEW! Enhanced clinical images emphasize clarity and detail like never before, including full-color images replacing many in black and white, higher-resolution brain scans, and reprocessed spinal cord and brainstem images.
  • MRIs complement full-color anatomical illustrations, allowing for visualization of structures both as they appear to the unaided eye and on imaging studies.
  • Unique, full-color illustrations integrate clinical images of representative lesions with the corresponding deficits highlighted.
  • Full-color stained sections facilitate the easy identification of anatomical features.
  • Dozens of pathway drawings superimposed over MRIs connect structure with function of neural pathways.
Located on thePoint, this atlas's companion website offers a variety of supplemental
learning resources to maximize study and review time!
  • Question bank featuring over 280 USMLE-style and chapter-review style questions
  • Bonus dissection photographs and brain slice series
