Artificial Intelligence to Predict Surgical Outcomes and Assess Pain Neuromodulation in Trigeminal Neuralgia Subjects

One month after radiosurgery, GKRS-VR subjects will receive neuromodulation treatment twice a week (30' per time), for 8 consecutive weeks followed by 9 months of remote rehabilitation. GKRS-VR group will perform neuromodulation based on VR sensorimotor rehabilitation using an immersive system developed ad-hoc. Treatments will include voluntary mimic movements reinforced by VR augmented feedback, consisting in the reflection of a real-time avatar animation, multiplied when needed, associated with different targets to reach based on specific facial gestures. The execution of motion multiplier on avatar will be allowed in order to personalize treatments, emphasizing a graded exposure to pain perception. In addition, the investigators will develop a dedicated mobile-application for remote rehabilitation with the aim of prescribing VR augmented feedback home exercises and immersive VR pain neuromodulation.

Control Group will undergo only radiosurgery with no rehabilitation and they will perform only clinical evaluation at study entry, after three months and one year.
