This page covers biological details of component Superior Cervical Ganglion. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Peripheral Nervous System -> Sympathetic Ganglia (PNS.SYM) -> Paravertebral Sympathetic Ganglia (LAC.PN.SYM.PA) -> Superior Cervical Ganglion (LAC.PN.SYM.SCG) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: sympathetic ganglion
- Quality: L0
- Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area (LAC)
- Area circuit: Vision Autonomic Control (LAV)
- Role: sympathetic.ganglion
- Function: Eye, tear and salivatory glands
