Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on the Human Ear04:42

Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on the Human Ear

1.9K
Source: Badran, B. W., et al. Laboratory Administration of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation (taVNS): Technique, Targeting, and Considerations. J. Vis. Exp. (2019)This video demonstrates transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS), a noninvasive method for modulating brain activity. Electrodes are placed on the anterior wall of the outer ear canal and the tragus, targeting the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN). When stimulated, the resulting nerve impulse...

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of Orbital Fractures

636
Personalized medicine for orbital reconstruction is developing rapidly. Due to the delicate nature of the orbit, small discrepancies following fracture reconstruction may cause impairment in visual perception. Here, we describe three methods for virtual 3D reconstruction of orbital defects and their indications and potential pitfalls for correct reconstruction.
