Neuroanatomy: Text and Atlas

Description

A regional and functional approach to learning human neuroanatomy – enhanced by additional full-color illustrations and PowerPoint® slides of all images in the text for instructors! Neuroanatomy: Text and Atlas covers neuroanatomy from both a functional and regional perspective to provide an understanding of how the components of the central nervous system work together to sense the world around us, regulate body systems, and produce behavior. This trusted text thoroughly covers the sensory, motor, and integrative skills of the brains and presents an overview of the function in relation to structure and the locations of the major pathways and neuronal integrative regions. Neuroanatomy: Text and Atlas also teaches readers how to interpret the new wealth of human brain images by developing an understanding of the anatomical localization of brain function. The authoritative core content of myelin-stained histological sections is enhanced by informative line illustrations, angiography, and brain views produced by MRI, and other imaging technologies. • Revised and updated to reflect advances in clinical neuroanatomy and neural science • Full-color illustrations enrich the text, including many new to this edition • Chapters begin with a clinical case to illustrate the connections and functions of the key material • Chapters end with a series of multiple-choice review questions • NEW Online learning center will display brain views produced by MRI and PET • Increases knowledge of the regional and functional organization of the spinal cord and brain, one system at a time • Provides thorough coverage of the sensory, motor, and integrative systems of the brain, together with cerebral vasculature • Promotes understanding of the complex details of neuroanatomy needed for accurate interpretation of radiological image • Comprehensive atlas provides key views of the surface anatomy of the central nervous systems and photographs of myelin-stained sections in three anatomical planes • Includes learning aids such as clinical topics, boxes, chapter summaries, and a Glossary of key terms and structures Neuroanatomy Text and Atlas 5th Edition......Page 1 Half Title......Page 3 Notice......Page 4 Title Page......Page 5 Copyright......Page 6 Dedication......Page 7 BOX FEATURES......Page 8 Contents......Page 9 Preface......Page 13 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS......Page 15 GUIDE TO USING THIS BOOK......Page 17 Chapter 1 Organization of Central Nervous System......Page 21 Chapter 2 Structural ana Functional Organization of Central Nervous System......Page 45 Chapter 3 Vasculature of the Central Nervous System and the Cerebrospinal Fluid......Page 71 Chapter 4 Somatic Sensation: Spinal Mechanosensory Systems......Page 97 Chapter 5 Spinal Systems for Pain, Temperature, and Itch......Page 117 Chapter 6 Somatic Sensation: Trigeminal and Viscerosensory, Systems......Page 137 Chapter 7 The Visual System......Page 163 Chapter 8 The Auditory System......Page 185 Chapter 9 Chemical Senses: Taste and Smell......Page 203 Chapter 10 Descending Motor Pathways and the Motor Function of the Spinal Cord......Page 227 Chapter 12 The Vestibular System and Eye Movements......Page 275 Chapter 13 The Cerebellum......Page 295 Chapter 14 The Basal Ganglia......Page 321 Chapter 15 The hypothalamus and Regulation of Bodily functions......Page 347 Chapter 16 The Limbic System and Cerebral Circuits for Reward, Emotions, and Memory......Page 375 Atlas I Surface Topography of the Central Nervous System......Page 405 Atlas II Sections Through the Central Nervous System......Page 421 ANSWERS TO CLINICAL CASES......Page 485 ANSWERS TO STUDY QUESTIONS......Page 491 GLOSSARY......Page 497 Index......Page 523
