title: The mandibular canal of a Neanderthal: the La Chapelle-aux-Saints man anatomical-radiological study.
abstract: The radiological study by panoramic and CT scan methods of the Neanderthal La Chapelle-aux-Saints mandible shows us that the mandibular canal very closely resembles that which we can see in modern man. The images obtained are of good quality and can be utilized for the analysis of the internal structure of fossils.
