This richly illustrated atlas is arranged in five parts: 1) background, methods, tips for use and general references; 2) life-size images of the gross anatomy of the brain as represented by photographs of the surfaces, dissections, vascular regions, MRIs, etc.; 3) blockface photos of brain sections cut in coronal, sagittal and horizontal planes with insets to show the regions supplied by particular arteries; 4) low power microscopic images showing the histologic organization of subcortical and brainstem structures; and 5) computer based illustrations of the course of major ascending and descending pathways.
