introduction: unstained formalin-fixed whole brain specimens and brain slices do not give satisfactory results for teaching neuroanatomy. in addition, difficulties in obtaining human brains for dissection have increased the demand for more durable brain specimens that have been obtained by the plastination technique. in the present study brain specimens were sliced, fixed and stained using the ...

This study aims to analyze Johann Gottlieb Walter's biography (1734-1818), a German physician that specialized in human anatomy, who received an award of the Göttingen Royal Academy of Sciences. Here, we describe his technique of preparing bones for educational purposes through the comparison of other widely used techniques. The article also focuses on the great historical, scientific and didac...

In this article, we present some advances on medical imaging and computing at the National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition (NLPR) in the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The first part is computational neuroanatomy. Several novel methods on segmentations of brain tissue and anatomical substructures, brain image registration, and shape analysis are presented. The second part consists of brain conn...

Introduction: One of the essential requirements for effi cient oral and maxillofacial surgeon is comprehensive knowledge in anatomy of head and neck regions. Authors believe that asking students to draw anatomical sketches will assist them to improve their imaginary memory for human anatomy. However, drawing, as learning aid in anatomy, has not been given enough attention as a learning aid for ...
