Abstract :
Describes the anatomical-map (A-Map), a knowledge model of the human brain atlas, and shows its application to the interpretation of CT images acquired under varying degrees of individual differentiation. The A-Map is employed to integrate the information obtained from CT image data with that derived from knowledge about anatomy, physiology, and radiology. The authors present the results of an experiment whereby the A-Map was used to interpret anatomical parts in CT brain images
