Making Anatomical Preparations of the Human Brain Using Colored Silicone for Vascular Perfusion Staining (Technical Description)

Thorough understanding of the central nervous system anatomy is a fundamental part of a neurosurgeon ’s training. Development of novel neurosurgical approaches and optimization of existing ones directly depend on the comprehensive study of topographic anatomy of the head and neck using cadaveric specimens. Staining the vessels of the arterial and venous systems of a cadaveric specimen aids the de tailed understanding of the vascularization of anatomical structures of the brain.
