| book description |

MRI Atlas of Human White Matter remains the only atlas to provide detailed anatomy of human brain white matter. Knowledge of this anatomy via diffusion tensor imaging (DTI )greatly enhances our understanding of brain function and neural connectivity. These advances promise to be particularly helpful with neurological diseases, such asaAlzheimer's.a The second edition offers an introduction to and description of the methodology, the 3D anatomy of individual tracts, and a series of color-coded orientation maps to delineate white matter anatomy in a slice-by-slice manner. Improvements over the 1st edition include: afull segmentation of up to 176 regions of the brain, aadded definitions of gray matter to further understanding between white and gray matter structures, andathe addition of standardized stereotaxic coordinates. The atlasaserves as aavaluable resource for clinicians, researchers and graduate students in neuroscience, neurology, neurosurgery and radiology. Visualization of brain white matter anatomy via 3D diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) contrasts and enhances relationship of anatomy to functionFull segmentation of 170+ brain regions more clearly defines structure boundaries than previous point-and-annotate anatomical labeling, andaconnectivity is mapped in a way not provided by traditional atlasesElectronic files with viewing software can be made available via CD and/or BrainNavigator, allowing readers access to raw image files""
