2D - 3DPresentations of the Brain for  Neuroanatomy Students.  Review- Quiz - Test Mode.

The top-selling computerized interactive neuroanatomy atlas...     Most people who have taken a course in human neuroanatomy will probably tell you it was one of the most difficult courses they ever took.  Ask why, and they will tell you about the hours they spent trying to remember the names and locations of countless neuroanatomical structures.      Now, imagine having a learning aid that  reduces your study time by hours and is fun to use!  Brainiac! is a state of the art interactive human neuroanatomy atlas that goes beyond the pages of an ordinary textbook.       The intuitive "point and click" interface allows youto quickly and easily navigate  through the central nervous system.  Currently in use at  universities throughout the USA, Europe, Australia,China, Israel, South America, New Zealand and Canada.

Separate Gyri, Pal-Weigert stained sections from the spinal cord through the thalamus, Coronal and Horizontal modules. Over 50 brain sections.  Compare to most printed atlases and you'll see that there are over twice as many sections in Brainiac!  Review and test modes with scoring in test mode.  Section map screens allow you to see all the levels of the brain at which a particular structure is located. Functional neuroanatomy -  color coding of structures by function, major system associations via afferent and efferent connections. Brodman maps in gyri module. "Follow structure" buttons allow you to quickly and automatically follow the course of a particular structure Hint button in test mode easy "point and click" interface.

Brainiac! consists of four different modules. These include Gyri, Coronal. Horizontal and Pal-Weigert stained sections -- There are over 50 screens of brain sections.

Section Map Screens in the Coronal, Horizontal and Pal-Weigert Modules allow you to click on the name of a structure and all the levels that the structure appears at will be highlighted in red. Jump directly to a section by clicking on anumber.

In Review Mode you can click on the name of a structure from a list and the correspondingarea will be highlighted on-screen. Or, you can click on an area in thebrain section and be shown the name of that structure. Functional Information is available by clicking on the Show Function button.

In Test Mode Brainiac! will gauge your knowledge. You can have the name of a structure shown toyou and you select the brain region, or have the structure shown to youand you pick the name from the list.

 
Turn on the Brodman Areas button and view detailed information about Brodman areas in the gyri module.
