  1. Dimensions of Papio anubis extracranial carotid artery anatomy. Vessel lengths (mm), lumen diameters (mm), and angles of origin (degrees) were measured at autopsy. Mean values with SEM and range are represented. Dual measurements with the neck in flexion and extension were performed for relevant vessels. Ten subjects were studied for each measurement except where indicated (*n = 6).
