MindMap Gallery NEENT
The NEENT mind map clearly addresses primary aspects such as the nose, eyes, and throat, with each aspect having several levels discussing issues like nasal and lacrimal duct blockages. This graphical tool aids in information integration and idea stimulation by mimicking the radial structure of the human brain's neural network to enhance memory and information organization.
