Journal Article
Tinnitus: perspectives from human neuroimaging
2015
Overview
The causes and neurological mechanisms of tinnitus remain incompletely understood. In this Opinion, Elgoyhen
et al
. critically assess recent neuroimaging studies of people with tinnitus that implicate structural and functional changes among auditory and non-auditory areas and networks, and suggest ways to improve future research into the disorder.
Tinnitus is the perception of phantom sound in the absence of a corresponding external source. It is a highly prevalent disorder, and most cases are caused by cochlear injury that leads to peripheral deafferentation, which results in adaptive changes in the CNS. In this article we critically assess the recent neuroimaging studies in individuals with tinnitus that suggest that the disorder is accompanied by functional and structural brain abnormalities in distributed auditory and non-auditory brain regions. Moreover, we consider how the identification of the neuronal mechanisms underlying the different forms of tinnitus would benefit from larger studies, replication and comprehensive clinical assessment of patients.
