Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?Research in clinical neuroscience is founded on the conviction that a better understanding of tinnitus related changes of brain function will improve our ability to diagnose and treat tinnitus. Although considerable advances have been made in understanding the mechanisms of tinnitus, the clinical management of tinnitus remains largely based on a 'trial and error' approach. The identification and validation of a biomarker for tinnitus is thought to be the crucial step in the development of a personalized approach to the diagnosis and treatment of tinnitus. The overarching goal of this study is to incorporate advanced technologies to provide an objective, data-driven, personalized approach to the diagnosis of chronic tinnitus. This should lead to a clinically applicable tool that can be widely and easily used.
