Neural correlates of VNS via functional MRI. A VNS applied to an awake NHP (n = 1) in the MRI scanner resulted in minimal interruptions of respiration consistent with the start of stimulation (gray bands). B BOLD fMRI measured during VNS revealed statistically significant areas of activation and deactivation in both cortical and subcortical structures. See results for a full description of activated regions
