Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes & demonstrates the topographic anatomy of the central nervous system from the endoscopic viewpoint. The basic approach is to present the 3-D aspect of each region, & thus aid the planning of neuroendoscopic procedures, as well as microsurgical operations. The three parts cover the endoscopic anatomy of the intracranial subarachnoid space, of the ventricle system, & of the spinal subarachnoid space. In each part the regions are demonstrated by endoscopic dissections. Each region is approached from different directions to demonstrate the 3-D aspect & also the changing optic image of each structure under the use of various preparation angles. The figures show in a step-by-step approach how a region can be evaluated anatomically.
