In Vivo Atlas of Deep Brain Structures

In the first half of the twentieth century, the study of neuroanatomy was essentiallybased on the observations made by scientists on brain cadavers fixed with standard techniques. These studies have produced well-known tools such as the stereotactic atlas, which have proven to be extremely useful and irreplaceable for neurosurgeons, neuroradi­ ologists, neurologists and neuroanatomists. In particular, the Talairach and Schaltenbrandt atlases are considered the most presti­ gious and up-to-date w
