While some countries have their own scale to measure the brain, Indian scientists are still dependent on the Caucasian brain template. Now they developed a scale that will measure an Indian brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The templates and atlas will provide more precise reference maps for areas of interest in individual patients with neurological disorders like strokes, brain tumours, and dementia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These templates and atlas will also help pool information more usefully in group studies of the human brain and psychological functions, aiding our understanding of psychiatric illnesses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
