age: 18 years and older
patients: diagnosed tinnitus or noise-induced hearing loss

Exclusion Criteria

ferromagnetic implants
neurological or psychiatric diseases

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Purpose and final point of the study is proofing a crossmodal interaction between auditory perception and stimulation of the vestibular organ with patients suffering from tinnitus or a noise-induced hearing loss compared to healthy people. The endpoint measurement is expected the end of june 2019.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
We hypothesize that stimulation of the vestibualr organ has a different effect on the acoustical perception of patients than on healthy people`s acoustical perception, whereas the effect of a somatosensory stimulus is the same in both groups. This hypothesis is to be verfied.
