| neural ganglion | 1. A knot or knotlike mass. 2. <anatomy> A general term for a group of nerve cell bodies located outside the central nervous system, occasionally applied to certain nuclear groups within the brain or spinal cord, for example basal ganglia. 3. <oncology, tumour> A benign cystic tumour occurring on a aponeurosis or tendon, as in the wrist or dorsum of the foot, it consists of a thin fibrous capsule enclosing a clear mucinous fluid. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nodose ganglion | The inferior (caudal) ganglion of the vagus (10th cranial) nerve. The unipolar nodose ganglion cells are sensory cells with central projections to the medulla and peripheral processes traveling in various branches of the vagus nerve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sublingual ganglion | A tiny ganglion occasionally found anterior to the submandibular ganglion, of which it is a displaced portion; innervates the sublingual gland. Synonym: ganglion sublinguale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| submandibular ganglion | A small parasympathetic ganglion suspended from the lingual nerve; its postganglionic branches go to the submandibular and sublingual glands; its preganglionic fibres come from the superior salvatory nucleus by way of the chorda tympani. Synonym: ganglion submandibulare, submaxillary ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| submaxillary ganglion | A small parasympathetic ganglion suspended from the lingual nerve; its postganglionic branches go to the submandibular and sublingual glands; its preganglionic fibres come from the superior salvatory nucleus by way of the chorda tympani. Synonym: ganglion submandibulare, submaxillary ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior cervical ganglion | The largest and uppermost of the paravertebral sympathetic ganglia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| superior ganglion of glossopharyngeal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The upper and smaller of two ganglia on the glossopharyngeal nerve as it traverses the jugular foramen. Synonym: ganglion superius nervi glossopharyngei, Ehrenritter's ganglion, intracranial ganglion, jugular ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior ganglion of vagus nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A small sensory ganglion on the vagus as it traverses the jugular foramen. Synonym: ganglion superius nervi vagi, jugular ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior mesenteric ganglion | A paired sympathetic ganglion located at the origin of the superior mesenteric artery from the aorta. Synonym: ganglion mesentericum superius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior part of vestibular ganglion | Rostral part, the superior part of the vestibular ganglion that receives fibres from the maculae of the utricle and the saccule and the ampullae of the anterior and lateral saemicircular ducts. Synonym: pars superior ganglii vestibularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sympathetic branch to submandibular ganglion | Branch to the submandibular ganglion composed of postsynaptic sympathetic fibres from the internal carotid plexus conveyed largely by a periarterial plexus of the facial artery. Synonym: ramus sympathicus [sympatheticus] ad ganglion submandibulare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sympathetic root of ciliary ganglion | Postganglionic fibres,having cell bodies in the superior cervical ganglion, branching from the carotid plexus passing through the ciliary ganglion without synapse to reach the eyeball. Synonym: radix sympathica ganglii ciliaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diffuse ganglion | A cystic swelling due to inflammatory effusion into one or several adjacent tendon sheaths. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dorsal root ganglion | <anatomy> Enlargement of the dorsal root of the spinal cord containing cell bodies of afferent spinal neurons. Neural outgrowth from dorsal root ganglia has been studied extensively in vitro. (18 Nov 1997) |
| ganglion neuron |
A neuron of the retina that receives impulses from bipolar neurons. Axons of ganglion neurons converge at the optic disk to form the optic nerve. SEE: retina for illus..

| ganglion c. |
1. a form of large nerve cell characteristic of ganglia; called also gangliocyte. 2. any of those retinal cells that are the third (last) neurons in the vertical linkage of the retina and are analogous to the relays in the spinal cord and brain stem. At least six types of ganglion cells have been classified according to their dendritic patterns. See also visual cone

| ganglion cell l. |
a layer of the pars nervosa retinae, situated between the inner molecular layer and the stratum opticum, or nerve fiber layer, consisting essentially of the ganglion cells of the retina, and containing also the fibers of Müller, neuroglia, and branches of the retinal vessels.
