Background: Cadaver dissection remains one of the most reliable and safest ways to study anatomy, whereas computed tomography angiography (CTA) is an essential technology for enabling students to become familiar with human anatomy and surgical planning. Thus, the convergence of both radiologic and anatomic information is important for surgical success, especially in regions of complex anatomy such as the nasosinusal and skull base regions. Here we propose an experimental model in formalinized cadaver heads consisting of intravascular injection of colored latex and iodinated contrast mixture, followed by CTA scans of the nasosinusal and skull base arterial and venous systems before dissection.

There are few authors focused on the study of preparing manuals criteria, often criticized for methodological rigor of the information. However, it is interesting to understand what is going wrong; to understand prognosis in self-handling; in prevention of complications; in identifying better services and information; in encouraging the pursuit of excellence in the healthcare. In its preparation should be valued the basic requirements of a manual, which are: 1) wrote in simple words, being concise, efficient, clear with index or table of contents; 2) using the existing institutional rules; 3) being flexible; and 4) having ongoing process of review, update and distribution.
