Netter’s Atlas of Neuroscience, by David L. Felten and Anil N. Shetty, is an atlas and textbook that combines nearly 400 illustrations and radiologic images highlighting key neuroanatomical concepts and clinical correlations with updated information that reflects our current understanding of the nervous system. It offers user-friendly coverage in three parts-an overview of the nervous system, regional neuroscience, and systemic neuroscience- that enable you to review complex neural structures and systems from different contexts. Online access to Student Consult- where you’ll find the complete fully searchable contents of the book, videos of imaging sequences, links to relevant content in other Student Consult titles, and more- further enhances your study and helps to prepare you for exams.
- Presents nearly 400 exquisite Netter and Netter-style illustrations that highlight key neuroscience concepts and clinical correlations, providing you with a quick and memorable overview of anatomy, function, and clinical relevance.
- Provides concise text for fast, “at-a-glance” guidance.
- Features a regional organization of the peripheral nervous system, spinal cord, brain stem and cerebellum, and forebrain...and a systemic organization of the sensory motor systems, motor systems (including cerebellum and basal ganglia), and limbic/hypothalmic/autonomic systems...that makes reference easier and more efficient.
- Features high-quality imaging―high-resolution MRI in coronal and axial (horizontal) planes and brain stem cross-sections―as well MR angiography and venography and classical arteriography―for an enhanced perspective of intricacies of the nervous system.
- Presents updated information and new figures that reflect the current understanding of the neural components and supportive tissue, regions, and systems of the brain, spinal cord, and periphery, to ensure that you have the latest knowledge.
- Offers schematic cross-sectional brain stem anatomy and axial and coronal brain anatomy―with side-by-side comparisons with labeled MRs―to better illustrate the correlation between neuroanatomy and neurology.
- Provides new 3D color pixelated imaging of commissural, association, and projection pathways of the brain.
- Features Clinical Notes boxes that emphasize the clinical application of fundamental neuroscience.
- Incudes online access to Student Consult where you’ll find the complete fully searchable contents of the book...3-D imaging sequences...links to relevant content in other Student Consult titles...and more...to further enhance your study and help you prepare for exams.

Of Galen inferiorly, both of which drain into the straight sinus. Occlusion of a vein in this region causes a blockage of drainage and a backup of perfusion, with resultant ischemia of the tissue in the regions of drainage. Cerebellum 4th ventricle Median aperture (of Magendie) Lateral aperture (of Luschka) CLINICAL POINT Venous thrombosis can occur following an infectious process, especially in the nearby sinuses, middle ear, or adjacent facial areas. Noninfectious causes of venous thrombosis.
CLINICAL POINT An action potential that invades the motor end plate results in a calcium-mediated simultaneous release of multiple quanta (vesicles) of ACh. This released ACh acts on nicotinic cholinergic receptors on the postjunctional membrane, normally resulting in a muscle contraction (excitation-contraction coupling). In myasthenia gravis, antibodies against the cholinergic nicotinic receptors greatly reduce the number of active receptors available for stimulation by released ACh. The size.
Branches results in loss of cutaneous sensation or in pain and paresthesias in regions of the head or neck supplied by these branches. 154 Regional Neuroscience Ventral rami C3 C3 C4 C4 C5 C5 Anterior scalene muscle Ventral rami Anterior scalene muscle Right common carotid artery Brachial plexus Brachial plexus Right phrenic nerve Left phrenic nerve Right subclavian artery Left subclavian artery Right vagus (X) nerve Left common carotid artery Internal thoracic artery Left.
Brachial plexus. Unlike the distributions of the dorsal nerve roots, the c utaneous sensory distributions of these peripheral nerves to the upper limb do not overlap. Thus, a peripheral nerve injury or compression results in a zone of anesthesia corresponding to its distribution. Irritative lesions result in pain and paresthesias that occur in the same corresponding distribution.

To the head and neck regulate pupillary constriction and accommodation for near vision (CN III, ciliary ganglion to pupillary constrictor muscle and ciliary muscle); tear production (CN VII, pterygopalatine ganglion to lacrimal glands); and salivation (CN VII, submandibular ganglion to submandibular and sublingual glands and CN IV, otic ganglion to parotid gland). The sympathetic nerve fibers to the head and neck derive mainly from the SCG, with synapses to the pupillary dilator muscle, sweat.
