Brain magnets target phantom ringing

NCT ID NCT01407133

Summary

This study tested whether magnetic stimulation applied to the brain could reduce the severity of chronic tinnitus—persistent ringing in the ears. Researchers compared different levels of magnetic treatment against a sham (fake) procedure in 64 adults with severe, long-term tinnitus. The goal was to find the most effective and safe treatment settings and see if benefits lasted over a 12-month follow-up period.
