MeSH definition : Clusters of neurons and their processes in the autonomic nervous system. In the autonomic
ganglia, the preganglionic fibers from the central nervous system synapse onto the
neurons whose axons are the postganglionic fibers innervating target organs. The ganglia
also contain intrinsic neurons and supporting cells and preganglionic fibers passing
through to other ganglia.;
