Normal CT and MRI images of the brain are presented along with MRV movies files. Its important to understand the normal imaging of the brain in order to diagnose and understand pathology. Selected anatomy is presented as Grays anatomy images and interactive MRI/CT images.
The app is designed to be extremely simple to highlight the appearance of normal studies. You need an internal template for normal before you can assess pathology.
The images were obtained with state of the art machines: a 320 slice CT and a 3T MRI.
This app is part of the Osler.edu project at the University of Toronto, making medical education available digitally.

Nice collection of images but paucity of labeling
The images are of decent quality on my 3rd generation iTouch (my device does not have retina display). It is fun to scroll through the image sequences and you can zoom in if desired. CT and MRI are included as well as many different MRI sequences. However only the 9 selected interactive anatomy images are labeled (8 axial images and 1 sagittal image) which makes this program minimally useful in understanding brain anatomy. There are also two images from Grays anatomy which are far too few. I would have like to see some of the other images labeled with anatomical names, if not every image then perhaps 1 out of 4, with the option of turning the labels on or off.
