Figure 4

Right-sided animation demonstrating measurements from the carotid bifurcation to points of interest. The dotted line is drawn at the level of the carotid bifurcation. The following structures are abbreviated: FV: facial vein; CN XII: hypoglossal nerve; STA: superior thyroid artery; SLN: superior laryngeal nerve; ECA/ICA: point above the bifurcation where the external-internal carotid artery crossover occurs.
