A few of the original illustrations in this chapter are from theprivate collection of Prof. Matas, kindly loaned for this purpose andappear for the first time in these pages. These illustrations wereprepared by my colleague, Dr. Urban Maes, who, in association withProf. Matas, has done much work and developed great skill in this field. THE HEAD, SCALP, CRANIUM, BRAIN, AND FACE 509 For a thorough understanding of the methods of local andregional anesthesia applied to the head a thorough knowledge ofanatomy is essential, with a study of the subject from every viewpoint;only then can we properly appreciate the difficulties and delicatetechnic necessary for the clinical application of these Fig. 146—Diagram of the fifth cranial nerve. (From Flower.) It is for this reason that the minutiae and details of anatomy havebeen discussed so thoroughly in the following pages; for my ownpart this study has been of immense value in developing any pro-fiency I may have attained in this field and I cannot too stronglyurge the necessity of its careful study to all who seek success here. 5IO LOCAL ANESTHESIA Nowhere else in the entire range of local anesthesia is it more stronglyemphasized that there is no royal road to success in local anesthesiaand that the only education in this field is self-education. parietal br. of stiperf. ... f -^ - ,temper, art. , -^//^^y^ Jin. of supraorbital nervefrontal br, of Siiperf,ytemporat art. brs. of zyeoinotiw-te
