The newly found anterior superior palatal alveolar artery (aspaa-"Arteria Kurrekii") might have the same clinical impact for surgical procedures in the maxilla as the posterior superior alveolar artery (psaa). Its first detection was enabled by high-resolution TRIUM-CBCT devices and prevalence as standard anatomical structure proven in vivo by automatized CBCT-scan analysis.
