Functional Anatomy, Vascularization and Serial Sections with MRI
Fourth Edition

The previous edition of The Human Hippocampus has been enriched of numerous modi fications for this fourth edition. Some of them concern the history of the terminology applying to this complex structure and whose origin is still unsure. If the anatomy of the hippocampus seems well de fi ned, our understanding of its functions is evolving quickly. Furthermore, its vascularization is still the object of numerous investigations, especially the architecture of the arterial, venous, and capillary networks in relation to hippocampal functions.
