Advances in Neuroanatomy - by John Stuart (Hardcover)

About the Book

Neuroanatomy is the branch of anatomy focused on the structure and organization of the nervous system. It comprises the study of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Neuroanatomists examine the physical composition of neural tissues, the interconnections between various neural regions, and the intricate network that supports sensory and motor functions, cognition, and behavior. Key structures include the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, brainstem, and limbic system, each responsible for specific neurological functions. Techniques such as brain imaging, histology, and dissection are employed to investigate neural architecture. Understanding neuroanatomy is fundamental for diagnosing and treating neurological disorders, informing surgical procedures, and advancing neuroscience research. This field bridges basic anatomy with complex neurological function, providing insights into how the nervous system supports human thought, emotion, and action. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of neuroanatomy and the recent researches in this field. It presents valuable insights provided by experts across the globe. This book is a vital tool for students and professionals obtaining comprehensive information in this field.
