title: Cortical and Brainstem Topognostic Testing in Tinnitus Patients - A Preliminary Report.
abstract: Preliminary electrophysiologic topognostic test findings suggest a method for the functional localization and quantification of tinnitus; and provides a basis for the selection and monitoring of treatment. Numerous and different locations of the tinnitus symptom have been identified. In our series approximately 24% of tinnitus patients were identified to have a peripheral origin; 35% originated in the brainstem; and 41% at a supratentorial level.
