The trigeminovascular system consists of neurons in the trigeminal nerve that innervate cerebral blood vessels. It has been hypothesized that the trigeminovascular system may be involved in some types of headaches.
@Tracos This I know but how is it involved in headaches? I thought understanding this system better would clarify the mechanism of headaches to me. But thanks for sharing.
