Pain Relief –Related Structural Brain Alterations in Trigeminal Neuralgia Induced by Noninvasive Stereotactic Radiosurgery: A Pilot Study

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a chronic pain disorder defined by unilateral shock-like pain in at least one division of the trigeminal nerve. Although several studies have investigated structural brain plasticity in patients with TN, treatment-induced alterations remain largely uninvestigated.
