“…Recently, Vanneste et al 42 compared tDCS of DLPFC with transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) of DLPFC. They found tACS to have no effect on tinnitus loudness or annoyance, unlike tDCS of DLPFC, which led to suppression of tinnitus annoyance, as well as loudness; contrary to the findings of Faber et al 41 In a head-to-head comparison of 3 neuromodulation techniques: tDCS, tACS, and transcranial random was observed after real tDCS and no significant effects were seen for the sham condition. Electroencephalographic (EEG) analysis revealed a significant increase of alpha 1 activity in the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex, a significant decrease of activity for beta 3 and gamma in the right primary auditory cortex and inferior primary somatosensory cortex post tDCS as compared to pre tDCS.…”

“…The rest of the studies 38-43,50-52 supported the effectiveness of tDCS in transient tinnitus reductions of related annoyance and/or loudness. Faber et al 41 proposed tDCS of the DLPFC modulated tinnitus annoyance but had no impact on tinnitus loudness. However, the hypothesis of difference in loudness and annoyance has been contradicted by other studies.…”

“…The action time of repeated sessions is naturally longer. If the gamma wave activity's being associated with the intensity of the perceived tinnitus sound in the auditory cortex and the parahippocampal field's playing an effective role in the characteristic properties of tinnitus and the stress created by the sound are considered, the use of the repeated tDCS sessions in the treatment of tinnitus by inhibitor effects in these fields may be very useful in the clinic (34,35).…”

ReviewTinnitus is described as the perceived sensation of sound in the absence of acoustic stimulation. According to recent studies, it is one of the most common health problems disturbing patients in their daily lives. Although previous studies have focused more on the peripheral features, such as inner ear pathologies, as the possible causes of tinnitus, accumulating evidence suggests that tinnitus is related to neuronal hyperexcitability in the auditory and non-auditory brain areas. Recent neuroscience research has shown that neuromodulation tools, such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), have promising effects in the treatment of tinnitus. However, the mechanisms of these observed positive effects are still far from being clear. The aim of this article is to review the pathophysiology of tinnitus and possible pathways of recovery by neuromodulation treatments and to summarize the results of recent randomized, controlled studies using tDCS and rTMS.

“…More specifically, tDCS of the DLPFC could be an effective alternative. Accordingly, Faber et al (2012) showed that bilateral tDCS of the DLPFC induced a decrease in the annoyance of tinnitus. Later, Vanneste et al (2013) showed that bilateral DLPFC stimulation significantly modulated both the annoyance and the loudness of the tinnitus.…”

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulatory technique with increasing popularity in the fields of basic research and rehabilitation. It is an affordable and safe procedure that is beginning to be used in the clinic, and is a tool with potential to contribute to the understanding of neural mechanisms in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and medical research. This review presents examples of investigations in the fields of perception, basic sensory processes, and sensory rehabilitation that employed tDCS. We highlight some of the most relevant efforts in this area and discuss possible limitations and gaps in contemporary tDCS research. Topics include the five senses, pain, and multimodal integration. The present work aims to present the state of the art of this field of research and to inspire future investigations of perception using tDCS.
