Nonhuman primates are of special relevance because of their immunological, physiological, and behavioral similarities to humans. Therefore, the lack of detailed anatomical MRI data of the rhesus monkey brain was a strong motivation for this work. It provides the first comprehensive in vivo MRI atlas of the living macaque brain at the highest technical quality currently available. Three-dimensional coverage of the brain in horizontal, coronal, and sagittal sections at unprecedented 0.5 mm isotropic spatial resolution is at the core of the atlas with an indication of anatomical structures. Multiple contrasts are supplied compatible with human MRI. Advanced techniques such as magnetic resonance angiography and diffusion tensor imaging are exploited for a visualization of the intracranial vasculature and the virtual reconstruction of nerve fiber tracts, respectively. Readability for the non-expert is ensured by a simple introduction into the principles and applications of MRI. Detailed descriptions cover all aspects of animal handling, experimental procedures, and image presentation in a stereotaxic coordinate system. The atlas is expected to serve as a reference source for easy identification of anatomical structures in the rhesus monkey brain. It is a must on the desktop of primatologists and neuroscientists in a broad range of disciplines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roland Tammer, Sabine Hofer, Klaus-Dietmar Merboldt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3525404247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783525404249\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vandenhoeck \u0026amp; Ruprecht\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 13.90h x 12.00w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2010 pg. 55","brand":"Roland Tammer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075203887359,"sku":"9783525404249","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98f645c4-d165-460b-9f2b-28a3852c12c3.jpg?v=1685458206","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/magnetic-resonance-imaging-of-the-jens-frahm-9783525404249","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
