Preface. Table of contents. 1. History of brain atlases for nonhuman primates. 1.1 Atlases for research communication and teaching. 1.2 Atlases for mapping. 1.3 Atlases for stereotaxic targeting. 2. Atlases for informatics and quantitative neuroanatomy. 2.1 The brain atlas as a tool for integrating image data from multiple sources. 2.2 The atlas as a visual index to diverse information about specific structures. 2.3 Simplified integration of new nomenclatures into existing knowledge bases. 2.4 Atlases as tools for integrating information from primate and nonprimate species. 2.5 Atlases as informatics tools to enhance teaching of neuroanatomy. 3. Primate brain maps. 3.1 The template atlas. 3.2 Methods. 3.2.1 Animals and specimens. 3.2.2 Preparation of the template images. 3.2.3 Stereotaxis. 3.3 The nomenclature: NeuroNamestrade;. 3.4 Limitations. 4.
