    Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Tinnitus

    I just saw an article saying they’re currently looking for funding to run a trial with 16 patients this time. I think that’s great news and a step in the right direction. @delta784, what would you like to know exactly? I feel like @lusiol summed it up pretty well.

    Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Tinnitus

    Thank you @lusiol. I posted in another thread about an ultrasound helmet that can have the same effect as DBS.
