Written by Jos J. Eggermont

The facts , theories and clinical implications of tinnitus and hyperacusis gives a general review of this emerging subject, including the underlying causes and possible cures for various illnesses.

An review of the genetics and etiology of tinnitus and hyperacusis is given at the beginning of the book. Subsequently, the author suggests a pair of similar brain circuits that underlie both situations, offering a foundation for bridging research conducted on animals and humans. Along with a thorough comparison of roughly a dozen models—including the neurophysiological model, the neural synchrony model and the cortical map reorganization and filling-in model—aimed at explaining tinnitus and hyperacusis, there is discussion of neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and immediate early genes.

Possible therapies for hyperacusis and tinnitus are also covered, ranging from non-invasive neuromodulation to behavioral approaches. Neurologists, audiologists, neuro-otologists, clinical psychologists, and neuroscientists are the target audience for this work. explains the genetics and etiology of hyperacusis and tinnitus. compares human and animal research on the limbic system’s activity. examines ten tinnitus and hyperacusis models. gives a summary of behavioral to non-invasive neuromodulation treatment options.
