Comment: The above comment was written by Aaron Cohen-Gadol. As he founded the ATLAS and created this draft, he does not get to claim this draft is "now very neutral." David notMD (talk) 15:39, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

The Neurosurgical Atlas (ATLAS) is a not-for-profit association for education and research related to brain surgery.[1] With more than 53,000 members, the ATLAS affects and advances neurosurgical care of patients worldwide, and many countries depend on the ATLAS for patient care.[2]

Example illustrations

The ATLAS is a platform for the introduction of safe neurosurgical cranial procedures. The Journal of Neurosurgery, the Operative Neurosurgery and the World Neurosurgery journals link to and use ATLAS materials for their publications and have dedicated sections for the ATLAS.[3][4][5] Over 300 international neurosurgeons join the Virtual OR webinar series by the ATLAS every week.

Content

The following topics are covered by the ATLAS: surgery of brain tumors, pituitary tumors, skull base tumors, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm, spinal cord tumors, and other complex brain operations.[6] The technical nuances in the ATLAS improve the safety, efficacy, and outcome of brain surgery and provide hope to many patients with previously inoperable tumors.[7]

The ATLAS was founded by Aaron Cohen-Gadol in 2013, and was officially introduced in 2016. It contains over 30,000 webpages, 530 chapters, 1500 surgical videos, and 11,000 illustrations and intraoperative images.[6] Using the ATLAS, surgeons can practice the operation the night before surgery by watching the relevant videos.[3]
