Скачать или смотреть Radiology Review: The Mandibular Canal

Do you have an upcoming radiology final? Let's review the mandibular canal in the panoramic radiograph. Essentially, it is a hollow tube for nerves and blood vessels to pass through! Since this tube is hollow and filled with soft tissues, it will be radiolucent (black) on a radiograph. It is named for it's location because it is found in the mandible (the lower jaw). The inferior alveolar nerve, inferior alveolar artery, and inferior alveolar vein (notice they all have the same name!) all live in this canal and supply the lower teeth.
