How to use – Part 2: Detailed Atlas of the Human Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates.

Features:


  1. Surface views of the brain prior to sectioning
  2. 69 serial microscopic (20 μm) myelin sections
  3. Placement of all sections indicated
  4. Metric stereotaxic grid system for all three dimensions
  5. Drawings of all 69 sections with detailed delineations
  6. Consistent color coding for cortex areas and individual structures allowing the user to follow structures from section to section
  7. Nissl stained sections with delineations of the thalamus and hypothalamus
  8. Screen shots of 3D reconstructions of several brain structures
  9. More than 50 publications dealing with histological, morphometric and histochemical findings of this peculiar brain
  10. Hierarchical tree of structures.
