Vascular lesions of the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity
1Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06504, USA.
Abstract:
The vascular supply to the face and paranasal sinuses is predominantly derived from branches of the external carotid artery. An extensive collateral arterial network exists between branches of the external carotid artery and the internal carotid artery that is important in the assessment of head and neck vascular disease. We illustrate the normal vascular anatomy and correlate cross-sectional and angiographic images of head and neck vascular disease, with a focus on lesions affecting the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Overview of Systemic Veins
The coronary sinus, the heart's principal vein, resides in the coronary sulcus on the heart's posterior aspect. This broad venous channel receives nearly all venous blood from the myocardium, the heart muscle. It is fed by three primary veins: the great cardiac vein, the middle...
