Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation and Modulation of Auditory Processing: Basic Principles and Clinical Application

By: Eggermont, Jos J.

Non-invasive Brain Stimulation and Modulation of Auditory Processing: Basic Principles and Clinical Application provides a comprehensive overview of innovative techniques designed to address auditory processing disorders while highlighting their underlying mechanisms and clinical applications. This book addresses the distinction between hearing loss and hearing impairment, emphasizing the need for interventions that target the brain's neural processes. With a focus on both transcranial and transcutaneous stimulation methods, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES), it explores their effects on auditory functions, cognitive processes, and long-term conditions such as tinnitus and developmental disorders. Each chapter investigates the biophysical mechanisms, therapeutic applications, and potential limitations of these non-invasive techniques, while also discussing their role in enhancing auditory attention, speech processing, and cognitive function in aging populations. By integrating neuroimaging techniques and addressing the importance of brain state, this book serves as an essential resource for researchers and clinicians seeking to understand and apply non-invasive brain stimulation methods to improve auditory processing and overall cognitive health.
