  1. CTN, Classical trigeminal neuralgia; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute; Baseline, the rs-fMRI was performed before stimulating the trigger zone; 5 s, the rs-fMRI was performed within 5 s after stimulating the trigger zone; 30 min, the rs-fMRI was performed in the 30th minute after stimulating the trigger zone; ACC, anterior cingulate cortex; R, right; L, left
