Cranial nerve V

The video tutorial explains the trigeminal nerve, also known as cranial nerve V, detailing its origin from the pons and its three branches: ophthalmic (V1), maxillary (V2), and mandibular (V3). Each branch's sensory and motor functions are discussed, including their pathways and areas of innervation. The tutorial also covers the trigeminal ganglion and the specific muscles involved in mastication, highlighting the unique roles of each branch.

Explain the role of the trigeminal ganglion in the trigeminal nerve system.
