| Anatomical terminology |
The bundle branches, or Tawara branches,[1] transmit cardiac action potentials (electrical signals) from the bundle of His to Purkinje fibers in heart ventricles. They are offshoots of the bundle of His and are important to the electrical conduction system of the heart.[2]
