Atlas of the Human Brain (5th Ed.)

Langue : Anglais

Auteurs :

Atlas of the Human Brain, Fifth Edition presents the anatomy of the brain at macroscopic and microscopic levels, featuring different aspects of brain morphology and topography with the most detailed and accurate delineations of brain structure. This new edition also features new diffusion tensor images (DTI), selected fiber tracts derived from tractography and depicted as "stipplings". It also includes annotated MR- and DT-images of the human brainstem. Totally new in this edition is the cortex map of von Economo and Koskinas in addition to the inclusion of Nissl plates with delineating of cortical areas (Brodmann?s areas) in serial histological sections.This is an essential guide to those working with human brain imaging or attempting to relate their observations on experimental animals to humans.

Professor Mai studied medicine in Freiburg, Germany, Vienna and UT Southwestern Medical School, Dallas, U.S.A. Student and Medical practices in Freiburg (Clinic for Neurosurgery), Berlin and Düsseldorf. Dissertation ("summa cum laude") and habilitation were awarded by the University of Düsseldorf: After a period as GP in private practice (Titisee-Neustadt) he became scientific assistant and senior assistant at the C. and O. Vogt-Institute for Brain Research, University of Düsseldorf (1972 - 1983) and Professor of Neuroanatomy at the Institute of Neuroanatomy, H.-Heine-University of Düsseldorf. He served as director of the Department of the Institute of Anatomy 1 until retirement in 2011. His main research interests are (i) the structural and molecular anatomy of the mammalian brain and (ii) expression patterns and regulation of terminal carbohydrates in development, cell activation and disease (III) operation planning in stereotactic neurosurgery. He works on a "Digital Brain Atlas for Planning and Interindividual Registration of Targets in Deep Brain Stimulation" and on a "Spatial Information Management Resource for the Human Brain". J. K. Mai has edited the catalogue of human brain sections from the Vogt collection; he is author and editor of several books, e.g. the awarded "Atlas of the Human Brain" (Academic Press/Elsevier, San Diego), "The Human Nervous System" (Academic Press/Elsevier, San Diego, Amsterdam, 3rd ed. 2012), Human Brain in Standard MNI Space: A Comprehensive Pocket Atlas (Academic Press/Elsevier, San Diego, 2017; with M. Majtanik), Funktionelle Anatomie für Zahnmediziner (Quintessenz, Berlin, 2nd. ed. 2008; Sensi Divini (ital., engl., ger, russ. eds). J. K. Mai is founder and CEO of MR-X-Brain GmbH.
Milan Majtanik received his diploma in neuropsychology and training in neuroinformatics from the University of Bochum. He completed his diploma in mathematics and his PhD in psychology at the University of Düsseldorf. In his research at the Resear
  • Examines the brain in the skull and the brain in stereotaxic (MNI) space
  • Includes high-resolution sections on the left sided 99 plates presenting myelin (Weigert) stained sections (covering myeloarchitecture) and fifty (Nissl) sections (covering cytoarchitecture), with new images and features
  • Features schematic drawings (stipplings) of fiber pathways generated from tractography and DTIs opposite to the cell-stained section
  • Contains sulci/gyri and Brodmann maps and the cortex map of von Economo and Koskinas
  • Provides diagrams in the horizontal (axial) and sagittal planes that are calculated from the 3D model of the atlas brain
  • Presents the brainstem. MRI, and drawings of nuclei and tracts on approximately 64 section levels, unlike the 4th edition
