Pocket Brain is your premium medical education mobile reference tool. It assists the medical, nursing and health care practitioner learn clinically relevant anatomy of the human brain for examination, revision and patient education purposes.
The intuitive navigation enables the user to navigate through the protective meninges layers and sub-cortical structures into the ventricles with the ability to view each layer in 3D. Additional cross sections and nerve pathways have also been added.
Anatomical structures in each layer are pinned for identification and associated with each pin is additional concise relevant information including clinical notes.

Latest reviews of Pocket Brain app for iPhone and iPad
Some of the anatomic informations are not well localized in the figures. The primary motor cortex of legs and arms, for example, are changed at the item "nerve pathway", and the auditory association cortex are not touching all the borders of the primary association cortex. I expect the next version to be revised.
I have all three Pocket apps and they have provided me with the best virtual anatomy studying experience ever! Although you learn anatomy in school, I find myself forgetting them quickly, especially when I dont use it often. Well, Pocket apps provided the best alternative to a human cadaver. Not only can I see everything more clearly (with the coloring and all) but I can go into different layers of the human anatomy just as I could in a cadaver. The Pocket Brain is the latest Pocket app and it presented the brain in such a visually appeasing way that I think every healthcare professionals and students should have one. The app has 3D brain structures and allows rotation to view all dimensions. There are also cross sections of the various regions of the brain further helps the user position the relative location of each structure. Sever pathways are also included. I know the price seems to be a big high but considering the usefulness of it all, its well worth the $20. For the medical students, think of the space you save in your already loaded book bags! The Pocket apps gives you everything on the iDevice you have! As for the price, whats a $20 or $100 more on top of your med school tuition? Its all worth it!
I use this app to educate parents and athletes on parts of the brain effected by concussion. The 3D graphics are amazing on the iPad! Highly recommend this app to anyone who is an allied healthcare provider.
Im a 1st year medical student currently in neuroscience. This app is a great learning tool for getting a grasp on the structures of the brain. It has enough detail to make it useful for med students and the ability to rotate structures and remove layers really helps out with difficult areas. I would recommend it to any student
this is a pretty good app, but i wish there were more detail. Im a first year med student, and whats shown is just a bit too elementary….but this could change with a bit more detail and a couple more pathways. whats shown is still very good though.
