Organ- and function-specific anatomical organization of vagal fibers supports fascicular vagus nerve stimulation

Organ- and function-specific anatomical organization of vagal fibers supports fascicular vagus nerve stimulation

Vagal fibers travel inside fascicles and form branches to innervate organs and regulate organ functions. Existing vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapies activate vagal fibers non-selectively, often resulting in reduced efficacy and side effects from non-targeted organs. The transverse and longitudi...
