Tinnitus is a widespread condition, afflicting around 20% of the adult population. This reference book emphasizes the multidisciplinary approach to the management of this disorder. Experts draw upon their experience to offer practical and scientific coverage. This book contains five sections that provide the reader with a rationale for diagnosis and treatment based on a medical audiologic team approach.
