Aims of this study are to analyze the association of the anterior ethmoidal artery’s (AEA) visualization with variations in its adjacent structures in coronal, axial, and sagittal CT images, to assess its relation with the ethmoid roof, and, based on this relation, to introduce a new classification for the ethmoid roof. A retrospective, cross-sectional study was performed in a tertiary referral center. In this retrospective, cross-sectional study, the coronal, axial, and sagittal CTs of 184 patients have been surveyed and the AEA canal, the ethmoid roof, and their relations with surrounding structures have been assessed. The Keros classification used to measure the depth of the lateral lamella of the cribriform plate (LLCP) in the ethmoid roof has been modified to include anterior–posterior length of the LLCP. It was shown that the visualization of the AEA canal increases in a statistically significant manner with an increase in …
