No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In the first visit a magnetic resonance imaging measurement will be done for the use of a neuronavigation System with the aim to control for stable coil position over the course of the trial. EEG positions CP5/CP6 will be used for positioning the coil. Two test sessions will examine the temporary reductions in tinnitus loudness after 1Hz, 10Hz, 20Hz and 0.1Hz rTMS as control condition over left and right temporo-parietal junction accompanied by electroencephalography. For the two-week treatment three arms will be evaluated: standard treatment (1Hz left-sided) in the groups with and without temporary reductions in test sessions and the best protocol as elicited in test sessions.
