Clear Explanation of Brain Function, Tract, & Anatomy International Edition

Jun KUBOTA (Author)

Preface
Cerebral vascular disease is popular and important for radiologists. Understanding of correlation of function and anatomy is necessary as well as knowledge of radiological findings for appropriate diagnosis. However, it has been difficult with an ordinary text book because of following 4 reasons:

(1) It describes detail facts but has no theory enough to explain them.

(2) Undetermined functions are correlated with complicated anatomy.

(3) Function , tract, and anatomy are described confusedly.

(4) There are so much information that we couldn't know what is fundamental to learn for the first.

This issue will overcome these difficulties by following 4 means:

(1) It has an essential theory to explain how functions and anatomy differentiated keeping correlation.

(2) It determines certain functions based on the essential theory and enough to explain clinical symptoms, and correlates them with a simple anatomical model which is also based on the theory.

(3) It describes only in view of function. Words that confuse function, tract, and anatomy such as ''pyramidal tract'' or ''cerebellar function'' will NEVER appear.

(4) It provides fundamental affairs for readers to understand the framework. Some even famous matters are ignored when it makes things complicated. I believe that could cover just 60% of all necessary contents of this subject.

Readers of this article are supposed to have learned once with an ordinary text book, having knowledge of most popular anatomical terms.
This issue has been published earlier in Japanese in April, 2012.
