Effect of rTMS on Resting State Brain Activity in Tinnitus
Completed · Not applicable · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Tinnitus
In brief
One out of every five people experiences tinnitus (a ringing, buzzing, or roaring sound in the ear) ranging from mild to severe impairment. To date, there are no effective therapies available that have been shown to decrease tinnitus awareness. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a treatment option for tinnitus that uses a technique called Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS), which could prove to be an effective means of alleviating or reducing the symptoms of tinnitus.
