Product Description
Neuroanatomy is, by nature, an incredibly complex subject. Too often, overwhelmed by anatomical detail, students miss out on the functional beauty of the nervous system and its relevance to clinical practice. "Neuroanatomy through Clinical Cases" resolves this dilemma, using over 100 actual clinical cases and high quality radiologic images in an interactive format to bring neuroanatomy to life. With this approach, structural details take on immediate relevance as they are being learned, and students are able to integrate knowledge of disparate functional systems, since a single lesion may affect several different neural structures and pathways.

 A must have for any neurology resident November 18, 2008
An outstanding, clearly presented, easy-to-read text that any neurology resident or medical student interested in neurology will find useful. As a bonus, you get access to online videos that demonstrate the complete neurological examination.
I passed my boards easily with this text as one of my key study resources. I couldn't recommend this book more highly.
clear and useful October 14, 2008
I'm a first year neurology resident and the book is really helpful in the daily clinical problems, being a fast way of reviewing neuroanatomy. I also got very satisfied with the delivery service: it arrived in Brazil in 14 days in excelent conditions!
Excellent book!!! October 6, 2008
I'm a medical student, and our chief resident for neurology at MGH told us to get this book. It is fabulous, and I'm so thankful that he told us to use this book. Neuroanatomy Through Clinical Cases is clear, concise, well-organized, and clinically useful. It is obvious that a lot of time has gone into editing this book. Each chapter has 20-40 pages of information, and then 20-40 pages of clinical cases. On top of it all, this is a fun read and the information will stick with you.
Excellent Neuroanatomy studying book September 24, 2008
This book provides a comprehensive and easy-to-read approach to neuroanatomy and it was very helpful for me as a first year neurology resident. I recommend it for all those who need a first general and concise approach to neuroanatomy in the clinical setting.
Excellent Review of Neuroanatomy July 12, 2008
For doctors looking to improve their clinical skills in neurology, this is the book. Infact, this is the book that I wish I had in medical school. I like the clinical orientation. The neuro exam is related to anatomic structures multiple times, from different angles. For instance, when reviewing neuroanatomy, the anatomy is presented and then a comment about resulting deficits from damage to this area and a brief comment on the aproach to testing. Then during the neuro exam the test is illucidated and comments refer back to anatomic structures and deficits. During clinical exams you get to refine and practice what you have learned elsewhere. In the world of MRI and CT I have enjoyed relating what I learn in each section to my patients. While certainly not necessary to fulfill my job, I feel more confident as we move into the age of stroke tPA and embolectomy that I will be ready when one of my patients suffers a bleed while in house.
