Ganglia (or singular ganglion), neural ganglia, are structures situated outside central nervous system (for illustration, beside near viscera or spinal column) made of concentration of the neuron bodies.

In central nervous system (or CNS) concentrations of neuron bodies are named as nuclei and not ganglia.
