Neuroanatomy

Neuroanatomy is the anatomy of the nervous system. In vertebrate animals,
the routes that the myriad nerves take from the brain to the rest of the
body (or "periphery") and the internal structure of the brain in particular
are both extremely elaborate. As a result, the study of neuroanatomy has
developed into a discipline in itself, although it also represents a
specialization within neuroscience. The delineation of distinct structures
and regions of the brain has figured centrally in investigating how it
works. For example, much of what neuroscientists have learned comes from
observing how damage or "lesions" to specific brain areas affects behavior
or other neural functions.

Neuroanatomists work mainly by dissecting, "imaging" (such as MRI, CT and
PET), performing in vivo staining and histology.
