In Vivo Atlas of Deep Brain Structures : With 3D Reconstructions /

This "in vivo" atlas contains more than 50 magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain. Each structure is represented in the axial, coronal and sagittal plane, magnified in colour schemes and reconstructed in 3D images with a useful millimetric scale. The atlas offers the reader a practica...
