* V2 division, end branches—axial high-resolution T1W image at the level of the inferior turbinates. Shown are the greater (black arrow) and lesser ( white arrow) palatine nerves, the cutaneous end branches of the infraorbital nerve (gray arrows), and the superoanterior alveolar branch (gray arrowhead), which detaches from the infraorbital nerve under the orbital floor. This alveolar branch then courses in the frontal process of the maxillary bone. The mandibular nerve in the masticator space ( white arrowhead) is also seen. * V3 division, mandibular nerve—coronal T1W image. The mandibular nerve can be seen inside the oval foramen (black arrow) and its inferior alveolar branch can be followed toward the mandibular foramen (white arrows). Meckel’s cave (gray arrow) can also be seen. * It‘s branches of the mandibular nerve- contrast-enhanced T1W 3D-FFE images with extreme high resolution through the oval foramen region in the axial (A), coronal (B), and sagittal (c) planes and axial (D) and coronal (E) similar images through the auriculotemporal nerve and the ring it forms around the middle meningeal artery. (A) the enhancing venous plexus around the trigeminal nerve just under the skull base makes it possible to distinguish the area of the buccal and anterior deep temporal nerve (gray arrow), major mandibular branch (black arrow), and the posterior extension of the nerve corresponds to the area of the otic ganglion, auriculotemporal nerve origin and meningeal branch (white arrow). The middle meningeal artery (white arrowhead) and internal carotid artery (gray arrowhead) are also seen. * (B) The mandibual nerve (white arrow) is seen in the oval foramen and divides in a lingual (gray arrow) and inferior alveolar (black arrow) branch at the level of the internal maxillary artery branch. * (C) Mandibular nerve in the oval foramen (white arrow), temporobuccal nerve (black arrow) and major mandibular branch (gray arrow), and the region of the auriculotemporal nerve and men
