*
: The angles were measured at the anterolateral intersection of each line with the coronal plane. (See Figure 1).
Abbreviations: AMF = anteromedial foramen; AMI = anteromedial trigeminal impression; PLF = posterolateral foramen; PLI = posterolateral trigeminal impression; Centroid = centroid of the foramen
